Honoring veterans: In Memoriam
For long-time member Bruce Cross and the brethren of American Legion Post 255, the historic building on Arthur Miller Drive houses noteworthy memories of history, culture and service.

Opinion: Senator Jarvis 'remember the Nation's brave fallen men and women'
It is our responsibility as citizens to remember the Nation's brave fallen men and women - whether they died on foreign lands in the heat of battle or after a lifetime in the uniform of our Army. Never forget the men and women who know all too much the cost of our freedom, for their service to this country is the greatest gift of all.
