Incoming AG Talks Plans For Administration And Remembering Christmas On USS W.Va., This West Virginia Morning

On this West Virginia Morning, West Virginia’s Auditor J.B. McCuskey will become the state’s Attorney General in January. Statehouse reporter Caelan Bailey spoke with McCuskey about his career as a lawyer and delegate, and priorities for the incoming administration, and how he plans to follow the legacy of outgoing Attorney General and Governor-elect Patrick Morrisey.

And Christmas can be particularly difficult for those deployed away from home while serving in the military. Archival material shows how the Navy made the holiday special during the Great Depression — with a West Virginia connection.
