EVANSVILLE'S 163RD FIELD ARTILLERY WILL BE HOME SUNDAY, SOMETIME AROUND NOON, AND SUPPORTERS ARE ENCOURAGED TO LINE HIGHWAY 41 AND EVANSVILLE'S LLOYD EXPRESSWAY FOR A HOMECOMING PARADE.

LARRY RHODES HEADS UP OPERATION SUPPORT ON THE HOMEFRONT AND SAYS THEY'VE BEEN ABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY HELP TROOPS AND THEIR FAMILIES FINANCIALLY, AS WELL AS IN OTHER WAYS, BECAUSE OF THE GENEROSITY OF LOCAL RESIDENTS AND BUSINESSES.

WHEN A FINAL TIME IS MADE, RHODES SAYS AN THEY'LL MAKE AN OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT REGARDING THE EVENTS.
