Resident Press is partnering with our local VFW in Huntington, Arkansas to feature local veterans. We are forever grateful to these men and women. For their service and sacrifice as well as that of their families, we say thank you. A special thanks to Veterans of Foreign Wars Commander, Post 8245, Bernard Tougas.
