The Guardsmen from the 115th Engineer Group are rebuilding eight miles of state road 153 across the Tushar Mountains between Beaver and Piute County; widening and grading portions of the Fishlake Forest road to Kent's Lake, and constructing picnic shelters and restrooms at recreation sites on the forest. Units involved include the 117th and 118th portable bridge companies from Lehi, Tooele and Vernal; the 116th combat support equipment company from Springville and an Army Reserve Combat Engineer Battalion headquarters from Montana. Col. Kenneth Burnhope, group commander says the main goal of the long training exercise is train the Guardsmen in the missions they would accomplish if called to war. The Guard units were not activated for Desert Storm. "Most of these projects would never get done( without the Guard)," said Col. Burnhope. The money is allocated by the federal government for materials only. Wedotheprojects for thegovernmentandforthe people of Utah," he added. Col. Burnhope, who is retiring next month after 34 years military service, says he mountainous terrain is similar to the unit's primary area of responsibility and is providing excellent training.

Recently, with all the yellow ribbons and ebullition surrounding the Gulf War, Sandee installed a patriotic banner across the doorway of her shop which advertises "Our Sandwiches Are So Great Each One Is a Heroes."
