Local Big Spring residents have scheduled a local companion event at 5 pm on Friday June 6, 2025. The local event will be held at the Big Spring Veterans’ Hospital. According to Becky Moughon, one of the local organizers, their goal is to get the attention of federal lawmakers to reconsider cuts to the Veteran’s Administration in the proposed budget. June 6 is the eighty-first anniversary of D-Day which is a perfect time to remember how much our veterans have given for us.
