Virginia War Memorial adds Staunton general's WWII papers to archive

The family of Brig. Gen. Morris Thompson Warner donated his personal wartime papers, correspondence and military records to the Virginia War Memorial in Richmond, preserving the story of a Staunton native who helped train and lead American infantry forces during World War II. The collection offers a firsthand account of Warner's military service and his connection to Staunton and the Shenandoah Valley. Warner began his 28 years of military service as a cadet at Pennsylvania State University, where he graduated as cadet commander of the corps. According to his family, he was federalized into the U.S. Army for deployment to Europe during World War I, but the war ended before he was stationed there. In 1922, Warner was assigned as training and plans officer for the 116th Infantry Regiment, a Virginia National Guard unit with historical ties to the Stonewall Brigade. A history of the regiment lists Warner as its training and plans officer beginning Aug. 10, 1922. He rose through the ranks while also building a small manufacturing company and participating in civic life in the Shenandoah Valley. As World War II intensified, then-Lt. Col. Warner took command of the 116th Infantry Regiment and oversaw the preparation of its

Prince George roundabout project starts with detours

Work has begun on a long-awaited traffic roundabout on a main Prince George County road, and that means long-term detours will be in place. In an announcement Nov. 6, the project is expected to be completed by the summer of 2027. The roundabout "will improve safety and operations at the intersection," VDOT said. Motorists heading to and from Hopewell and the Prince George courthouse area are being directed to use state Route 156, also known as Prince George Drive, and state Route 106, Courthouse Road. Trucks and other large commercial vehicles will be directed to use Courthouse Road, state Route 36 and state Route 10 to get around the construction area. VDOT describes the roundabout as a single-lane circular project with drainage and lighting improvements. Similar roundabouts exist at the intersection of Jefferson Park, Allin and Bull Hill roads near the Fort Lee back gate, and at the intersection of Allin and Courthouse roads. A roundabout in the shape of a dog bone was recently completed at the intersection of Courthouse and Bull Hill roads. For questions about the roundabout project or to report hazardous road conditions, contact VDOT’s 24-hour Customer Service Center my.vdot.virginia.gov or by calling 800-FOR-ROAD ( 367-7623
