Veterans Memorial Mound, Holy Sepulcher Cemetery

View towards a group of people standing in a cemetery around an altar and a flagpole with an American flag. A clergyman in an alb and chasuble standing in the center. A number of the assembled people in the group are wearing hard hats and military uniforms, with some of the men holding American flags. Caption reads: "Catholic War Vets will dedicate the Veterans Memorial mound in Holy Sepulcre (sic) Cemetery, W. College oa. (sic) and S. Lake Dr. Cudahy on Sunday. American Legion, Polish Legion and V.F.W. will participate in the ceremonies there at 9:00 AM. Sunday, 200 CT. Guess it will be quite a local turnout. Gonyea will make the principal address and four firing squads will rend the air..." |
