U.S. Veterans Memorial Museum in Huntsville, AL

US VeteransLocated in the northern part of Alabama, Huntsville comes in as the fourth largest city in the state. While there are many things that are special to this town, one attraction that we hold close to our hearts is the U.S. Veterans Memorial Museum on Airport Road SW. With everything that our veterans have done for us, it is nice to work so close to a place that pays homage to these heroes. This museum works in three different areas: historical preservation, public display, and public education. While all veterans are honored within these grounds, the museum holds a great emphasis on those who fought for the United States in World War I. Many Huntsville residents as well as visitors come to the museum to remember those family members and loved ones who fought and lost there lives in the war. The museum commemorates those from all different areas of the military, including men and women from the front line, doctors, researchers, and many other positions held.

How Should Alabama Choose Judges?

Judge | Huntsville, AL | Martinson & Beason, P.C.It’s an election year. Not a presidential election, no, but one that still has significance for the state of Alabama and its residents. This year, 31 Democrats and 31 Republicans are running for a party nomination for almost three dozen judge seats in Alabama. In the election, voters will choose between a Democrat and Republican candidate to fill the judge seat. This is the way it’s been done not only in Alabama, but also in Louisiana, New York, Tennessee, Texas, and West Virginia. But some—including attorneys and even other judges—are now criticizing partisan elections.
