A local soldier is returning home from Afghanistan this evening. Cody Foust will be welcomed home with a police and fire escort and a salute at the Knox VFW.

He will travel up U.S. 35 from Winamac to Knox late this afternoon. Family members say he’s due to arrive at the Knox VFW on South Heaton Street between 5 and 6 p.m. and encourage members of the community to come out and welcome him home. Foust is a member of the Bass Lake Fire Department. He’s also a Pulaski County Corrections and reserve officer.
