The Photo Gallery has 507 "poses" which are a result of a steady growth in our town-wide asset that everyone enjoys. Please maintain the momentum by locating an image of anyone who has lived in town and worn a military uniform www.hcam.tv/veterans/slideshow.shtml . Jim Cozzens is busy segmenting the photos by branch of service. Each branch will be alphabetized; e.g., www.hcam.tv/veterans/Marines.htm . It will allow an easier way to locate specific persons. Stay tuned.
