Gov. Janet Mills joined Senate President Troy Jackson, D-Allagash, Senator Craig Hickman, D-Winthrop, and Aroostook County veterans and their families for a ceremonial bill signing at the Lister-Knowlton Veterans of Foreign Wars, Post 9389, in Caribou on April 8.
Some 40 years ago I was privileged to work beside some of the most dedicated people I have ever met: Aroostook County veterans. I will not name them here but these were combat veterans, Vietnam-era veterans, Korean veterans, former prisoners of war, very diversified.
