This year, the Roslyn Landmark Society will celebrate Veterans Day by presenting a talk by a World War II veteran. On Wednesday, Nov. 11 at 7:30 p.m., at the Atria on Roslyn Harbor, Bernard Radar, along with June Radar, will share his war memories.
Radar was in the 94th Infantry Division, 301st Regiment, Company K as a rifleman. In October, 1944, a platoon of soldiers, including Radar were sent to get German troops in Brittany. The expedition turned out to an ambush and a battle that lasted all day. The platoon was forced to surrender and sent to Lorient. Bernie and June Radar will discuss the events of his imprisonment and prisoner exchange. The Atria on Roslyn Harbor located at 99 Landing Rd. The lecture and parking is free to the public.
