A Taste of Iraq for Kids - Thursday April 10 at 6:30 PM
Celebrating Diversity Month and Month of the Military Child, the Onslow County Public Library invites school age children to meet Major Lee Suttee, former USMC Civil Affairs Chief in Ramadi, Iraq, to experience Iraqi culture as well as ask questions.
Many of the community children are from Camp Lejeune military families who have or have had a parent in Iraq.
Though they may not voice their questions and concerns, these children have many unanswered questions about the place their parent is or has been. This is a marvelous opportunity for them to learn more about Iraq, its people and culture.
