Joe Habel, of Cheriton, building construction inspector for the new main building at the Eastern Shore Community College, stops to view the welding room and booths Wednesday during a tour of the structure. Below, work progresses on the structure that faces Lankford Highway.

Story and Photos by Linda Cicoira The Eastern Shore Community College is undergoing a few changes. There’s the reorganization of the school called a reboot that involved all the community colleges in the state and will mean a consolidation of resources, a decrease in administrative costs, and a drive to increase enrollment - all over the next three years. Interim President Billy Greer is holding down the fort as the col- lege continues its search for a new president after Linda Thomas- Glover left more than a year ago. And the new main building is slated to open in late summer just in time for the fall term. Initially, construction was due to be completed in February, but weather prevented that from happening. The new building will be filled with windows that will allow fan- tastic views of the campus. It has a grand staircase, lots of classrooms including labs for computers, chemistry, and biology. “We certainly believe it’s going to get the attention of a lot of 18-year- olds,” Greer said, adding, the freshman can start in Melfa instead of going to a school with tens of thousands of students where they would No, it’s not a scene from a Hollywood hor- get lost in the crowd. ror film.

Four Completed Bronze Statues The first four bronze statues, fully funded and commissioned for the Vir- ginia Women’s Monument, include Cockacoeske (pronounced Coke-a-COW- ski), a visionary Native American chieftain; Anne Burras Laydon, a James- town settler; Virginia E. Randolph, an influential African-American educator; and Adele Clark, a passionate advocate for woman suffrage and the arts. • Cockacoeske, leader of the Pamunkey after the death of her husband, Totopotomoy, in 1656. She was an astute leader of her people and she made an impression on the colonial officials with whom she negotiated. On May 29, 1677, she signed the Treaty of Middle Plantation, which secured tribal hunting rights and land ownership as well as united several tribes under her authority. • Anne Burras Laydon represents the women who sailed to Vir- ginia and overcame many deprivations to establish a thriving colony. She arrived in Jamestown in 1608 as a teenage maid- servant. In December of that year, she married John Laydon, in what is recorded as the first English wedding to take place in Virginia. She and her husband survived the starving time of 1609-1610 and raised four daughters. • Virginia E. Randolph, the child of former slaves, taught school in Goochland, Hanover, and Henrico counties.

By Linda Cicoira It started out as a local man’s dying wish to inform people about the USS Wachapre- ague so the knowledge would somehow re- vitalize his hometown and make it as pros- perous as it was when the late Johnny Ta- tum was growing up there many decades ago. Once the Eastern Shore Post learned of the quest, a reporter began a search for de- tails about the ship, which soon led to in- formation about other boats that also had familiar titles. Navy vessels were named USS Saxis, USS Tangier, USS Accomack, USS Oyster Bay, and USS Chincoteague. John Harrison “Johnny” Tatum died in 2015 when he was 58 years old. He lived in Wachapreague for years in the home of his grandparents, near the firehouse. He was a Navy veteran, worked on party fishing boats in Wachapreague, and did other jobs around town. Johnny Tatum was a rescue swimmer in the Navy, his first cousin William Ta- tum, also a Navy veteran, said recently. “If Photo of USS Wachapreague was taken by the Navy May 20, 1944, from the port bow view. people fell off or had to eject, the helicopter would hover and he (Johnny Tatum) would tion pioneers, or birds. starboard and one astern, eventually rections, PT boats tended by Wachapre- jump out and rescue.
