Beyond Honor by James Butler

06/10/2013 4:22 PM

“Before his son, Sgt. Jacob Butler, left for Iraq, Jim Butler made him a promise: If you are killed, I will go and stand where you fell. But keeping his promise proved more difficult than Butler expected. When he asked how his son had been killed, the Army couldn’t produce a report from the field describing what had happened. Butler’s quest for an accounting of his son’s death underscores one painful effect of the military’s loss of millions of field reports over the last decade. Read the full investigation: http://propub.ca/SVNm1G” (Published November 12, 2012 by ProPublica)

Boy Scout Troop 63 2012

Devin Brunk chose to help the Wellsville City Library with it’s building fund efforts for his Eagle Scout project.  He lead Troop 63 in a fundraiser at Smokey’s Bar-B-Que to cover the cost of the materials needed to make the  donation plaque.  Once the funds were raised, he oversaw and assisted with the making of the plaques.  The troop presented the library board with the plaque and remaining funds they had raised at the the board’s February meeting. The plaque is currently hanging in the library’s foyer.  Our goal is to one day hang the plaques in a completed meeting room addition.
