Mr. Kitts retired last year after enjoying a career at the Arsenal spanning almost three decades of perfect attendance. The topic of his presentation will be on the history of Radford Arsenal, the Dublin Bagging Plant (New River Ordnance) and Staff Village in Radford, VA.

Several organizations will also be participating in the ceremony including VFW Post 1184, American Legion Post 7, AMVETS, Wilderness Road Chorus, Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR), Boy Scout Troop 48 and Girl Scout Troop 1247.

After Mr. Kitts’ presentation, the ceremony will conclude with a 21 gun salute and the playing of Taps on the lawn of the Old Pulaski County Courthouse at the War Memorial located near the Pulaski Theatre followed by refreshments in the New River Room of the Old Courthouse.

Tours of the Old Courthouse will also be offered by members of the Courthouses Exhibits Committee.
