North Country Union High School Graduate in Running for National Security Adviser

With the news that Lt. General Robert “Bob” Caslen is being considered for the role of National Security Adviser, many of his former high school classmates and teachers at North Country Union High School in Newport, VT, are remembering him as a stand up guy, a great athlete, and a fierce competitor on the football field. He graduated from the high school in 1971. Gen. Caslen is currently the superintendent of West Point.

 

 

UPDATE:

Well, according to the news, he didn’t get the position, but it was quite the honor he was considered. And it’s not too bad that a local guy is the superintendent of West Point.

Stephen Henesy Takes Charge of the Newport, VT, Station of the U.S. Border Patrol

There is a lot of talk in the news about issues facing the southern border, including the possibility of building a wall in an attempt to keep people from illegally entering the United States. For the most part, it’s a different world here on the northern border.

In the coming days, the guest on the Northeast Kingdom Voice television show will be Stephen Henesy, the new patrol agent in charge of the Newport station of the U.S. Border Patrol. He’ll talk about his new position, and he’ll provide a glimpse into what it is like to patrol the Vermont/Quebec border.

The Northeast Kingdom Voice, which is hosted by Scott Wheeler, the publisher of Vermont Northland Journal, airs every week on NEK-TV in Orleans County on Channel 17 on Monday at 6 p.m. and Wednesday at 7:30 p.m.. The show will also be posted on Vermont’s Northland Journal’s website in the next week.
