TINTON FALLS – A battle-worn American flag that survived conflicts in Vietnam and Afghanistan now flies over Soldier On’s Gordon H. Mansfield Veterans Community, a gift from a fellow veteran.

Mater Dei Prep and the students in its Global Leaders program participated in a United Nations flag unveiling ceremony at the high school Feb. 15. During the event the school accepted a United Nations flag that hung in the office of Pathways to Peace founder and president Avon Mattison, who died in October and served as a mentor to numerous Mater Dei students.
