MasseyThe United States Navy announces that Crystal Coghlan Massey, daughter of Henry and Yolanda Coghlan of Holly Bluff, recently earned the Navy and Marine Corps Achievement award and selected as COMNAVAIRFOR Radiation Health Officer of the Year for 2011, East Coat and West Coast.
Massey was chosen over a number of extremely competitive candidates for the past year. Her achievements on the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower resulted in exceptional levels of operational readiness and support for the men and women of the command. As a true radiation health professional, she has taken her solemn duty to support the fleet to heart.

Dear Editor:
In the 6 April 2013 edition of The Yazoo Herald you published a letter from Cynthia Fuller, "Thanks to (Van) Foster for helping get bridge replaced."
After reading this lettter, I had the impression that the bridge was completed and traffic was moving along normally.
Wrong! Last Sunday I was on my way to homecoming at Providence Baptist Church. I turned north onto old 49 and saw the signs that the bridge was out. I assumed that they hadn't gotten around to removing the signs. I expected to cross Thompson Creek on the new bridge. When I approached the creek the road was barricaded and construction equipment was down in the creek.
Perhaps The Herald can keep us updated as to the progress being made on the new bridge.
