Over 100 members of the 851st Vertical Engineer Company is wrapping up two weeks of work at the Disabled Veterans Rest Camp on Big Marine Lake. The unit built two new cabins, laid foundations for three more, upgraded lighting systems to meet code, made the showers handicap accessible and more as part of their training. Major General Larry W. Shellito, the Adjutant General of the Minnesota National Guard, toured the construction today. The company returned from Iraq in July. At right: Crews install siding on one of the new cabins. Look for the full story in next week's Times.
