County’s New Veterans Affairs Director Introduced
1 min readFrom Potter County Today
Byron Sutton Jr., who recently joined the county as director of veterans affairs, addressed several issues of interest to veterans and their families during last week’s meeting of the Potter County Board of Commissioners. He emphasized that benefit programs are frequently changing, including a new initiative that benefits those veterans who may have been exposed to radiation as part of their service. Sutton said he is eager to share information about veterans’ benefits, particularly health care, pensions and disability compensation. He is working on a field visit schedule with local veterans’ service organizations
Sutton, a Galeton native, succeeded Leonard Kalkbrenner Jr., who retired in September. Both of the men were commended by the commissioners. His office is in the F. W. Gunzburger County Office Building at 1 North Main Street in Coudersport and is open Mondays and Tuesdays, 9 am to 3 pm, and other days by appointment. He can be reached at 814-274-8290, Ext. 210, or bsutton@pottercountypa.net. (Photo courtesy of Endeavor News)
