Massachusetts Fallen Heroes will be bringing its annual statewide educational initiative to Wellesley High School on Thursday at 10am, sharing stories with students of the ultimate sacrifices made by those from Massachusetts  who served in the U.S. military in Iraq and Afghanistan.

The Wellesley visit, which will emphasize the importance of Memorial Day, is part of a 10-day series of events honoring local veterans and families of those killed in combat. The organization was started in 2010 by firefighters, police officers, veterans, Gold Star families and others.
