                                been honored to contract with the U.S. 
                                Department of Veterans Affairs' National 
                                Cemetery Administration (NCA) to help care for 
                                many of the nation's historic monuments. Work 
                                has included coordinating assessments and 
                                reviewing treatment proposals for monuments in 
                                NCA’s cemeteries and soldiers lots across the 
                                country. Recently, Heritage Preservation 
                                developed a maintenance procedure manual for 
                                historic monuments and a training program to 
                                teach basic monument preservation principles and 
                                techniques to NCA cemetery staff. On June 20 and 
                                21, Heritage Preservation and NCA piloted this 
                                training program at Winchester National Cemetery 
                                in Virginia. Frances Gale, Professor of Historic 
                                Preservation at the University of Texas at 
                                Austin, provided one day of classroom 
                                instruction and a day at the cemetery for 
                                on-site demonstrations. Despite the scorching 
                                weather, participants gained hands-on practice 
                                in conducting inspections, gentle cleaning, 
                                applying protective wax to bronze, graffiti 
                                removal, temporary masonry repointing, and metal 
                                repainting. Click&nbsp;<A
