Good morning, Waco.

On Friday, local veterans and community members gathered at the Waco Vietnam Veterans Memorial to honor 83 servicemembers who died in Vietnam—participants recited names and tributes continued despite minor audio issues.

Memorial Day events continue today at 9 a.m. at the Doris Miller Veterans Affairs Medical Center with backup plans indoors if weather changes.

Early Sunday morning, gunfire at a Mexia high school graduation party left one person injured and police are searching for suspects who fled in a black vehicle—EMS flew the injured victim to Hillcrest Hospital in Waco, and he was later released.

The Senate signed House Bill 13‑93 today—if it becomes law, Texas will stop following national daylight saving time—which could change how local clocks are set in the future.

Communities in Waco and Killeen will honor fallen service members this Memorial Day as the Texas Ranger Hall of Fame and Museum hosts a military appreciation weekend with free admission for active duty, veterans, and retirees.

The Central Texas Veterans Health Care System holds a ceremony today at 9 a.m. at the Doris Miller Veterans Affairs Medical Center—state veteran cemeteries also remain open 24/7 through Memorial Day.
