ANSONIA >> The saga of the Four Chaplains Memorial Service is planned for Tuesday, Feb. 3 at the 1st Congregational Church, 44 S. Cliff St.
Emil Senger Post 10, American Legion, will present the service, which honors the courageous actions of those four men of God who sacrificed their lives aboard the USAT Dorchester on that fateful night of Feb. 3, 1943. The men, without regard for themselves, gave away their own life jackets to save others on deck that frigid winter night.
Light refreshments will be served in the church hall.
For more information, contact Post 10 Commander Mike Kearney at 203-888-7813.
