A tribute to veterans of the United States armed services during the Bearcats' Nov. 10 football victory over the Missouri Southern State University Lions carried a distinctly hometown touch.
The U.S. Army Apache helicopter that flew over Bearcat Stadium during halftime was piloted by Lt. Col. Thomas Burson, a 1987 Northwest graduate. The co-pilot, Chief Warrant Officer Shawn Deffenbaugh, grew up in Tarkio.
Burson's flyover was the climax of a halftime show during which the Bearcat Marching Band played the theme songs of the United States' armed services.
Prior to the game, Northwest Facilities Manager Marvin Harper, commander of the Missouri Department of the American Legion, participated in the coin toss.
Missouri Academy of Science, Mathematics and Computing staff played host to a Korean public television news crew Nov. 12-14.
Field coordinator and assistant producer Felix Kwon, reporter Seung-Joon Lee and cameraman Ho Lee were on the Northwest campus to do a series of interviews for an upcoming Korean Broadcasting System report on educational opportunities for academically gifted high school-age students.
KBS, Korea's premier public broadcasting network, plans to air the program in about three weeks. MORE
