Here are some shots from yesterday’s Memorial Day Observance here in Milton. The featured speaker was Milton native Colonel Paul Burke of the U.S. Marine Corps. In these photos is one of Colonel Burke pinning the Purple Heart on Hyman Levy, a machine gunner who served under General Patton in Africa in WWII. Injured in battle he was recently awarded his Purple Heart.
