Artillery unit opens doors to public

SYCAMORE – Anyone who has seen a Northern Illinois football game knows Alpha Battery 2/122 Field Artillery.

If the Huskies score a touchdown or win the game, members of the Illinois National Guard artillery unit fire a Howitzer cannon into the air.

"This unit is good about being involved with the community," said Capt. Dustin Cammack.
