“Two military veterans and a veteran of the classroom will be the three “unsung heroes” to be inducted Saturday into the Mexican American Hall of Fame in Stockton.

“There are certain individuals involved in the community that get plenty of notoriety,” said Richard Rios, a member of the committee that selected inductees Julian Sepulveda Jr. of Stockton, Maria Ramirez-McGuire of Tracy and Oscar Chapa of Stockton. “But there are also a lot of unsung heroes, whose names dont appear in the newspaper or arent involved in politics.”
