WWI historian Paul Osman of Williamsville, who last November
gave a stirring talk at the dedication of the Veteran’s Park in
Elkhart, is the much-anticipated speaker. Osman’s knowledge not
only of the war, but also members of the Elkhart community who
served in it, will take you back to an era that should not be
forgotten. Osman has just returned from his 11th trip to the
Western Front in France and Belgium. During this recent trip, he
visited the battlefields and graves of several Elkhart WWI
soldiers. Come celebrate the memory of those who unselfishly
gave to the war effort.
The event will take place at Horsefeather’s Wild Hare Café, and
the doors will open at 5 pm. Dinner will include a choice of coq
au vin or pork tenderloin with wine and mushroom sauce each
served with savory rice, vegetables, dessert and beverage.
