| 17552 | In January 1967, Blair completed Basic Training at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri and embarked on an amazing 38 year career with the US Army and the WV Army National Guard. Throughout his years of service, Blair was recognized and received many distinguished medals and awards, but was most humbled to receive The Legion of Merit for the exceptionally meritorious service. As was stated on his award, Chief Warrant Officer Five Nutter displayed initiative and leadership in various assignments throughout a distinguished career spanning thirty-eight years. His outstanding performance and dedication to duty are in keeping with the highest traditions of military service and reflect great credit on him, the West Virginia Army National Guard and the United States Army. In 2004, Blair retired from Federal Civil Service and held positions as Chief Auditor and Financial Manager at the United States Property and Fiscal Office in Buckhannon, WV. He retired from the US Army as Chief Warrant Officer Five (CW5). | NUTTER, Charles Blair (I43281)

| 17558 | In March 2021, Linda Burgess Collins, granddaughter of Lawson H. Gribble, shared a family photo and the following story about her grandfather: Today as I was pondering what is true "giving," a time in my grandparents' life came to me. My grandfather carried mail, and in the winters he did it on horseback. (A little side note: He would carry milk and bread to people up the roads that were too muddy for people to get out.) He was still working in the Depression, but a lot of the family members (friends) were not, so he shared his wages with the ones not working. Now to the giving part: Sharing his paycheck took money from his family, so my Mom and her siblings had to put cardboard in their shoes and do without some everyday things that were not 100 percent necessary. My Grandfather Lawson Gribble is on the right and these are his siblings. Aunt Doch, Aunt Ressie, Uncle Oak and Uncle Forrest. | GRIBBLE, Lawson Hall (I25289)
