Staunton's Stonewall Brigade "116th Infantry" coming home

The 116th Infantry Brigade -- the "Stonewall Brigade" based in the Staunton Armory -- is coming home early from Iraq. They deployed last May and hundreds turned out to see them off.

They are scheduled to return to Mississippi in February, and a tentative welcome-home ceremony is planned at the Armory on February 23. Mark your calendars to come out and welcome them home. The Staunton Armory is located on Thornrose Avenue beside Gypsy Hill Park. More information will be available as it is received.
