Last Thursday, area residents (from left) Don Russell, Harold Coleman and Chuck Russell assembled at the Veteran's Memorial on Skubitz Plaza in remembrance of a childhood friend Harvey Russell Parker. Parker, who was drafted into the Army in late 1965, died a heroic death, becoming the first Vietnam War casualty from Bourbon County. (Rayma Silvers/Special to the Tribune)
