Members of the South Hadley St. Patrick’s Parade Committee are planning a World War II prisoners of war/missing in action theme for their float in this year’s Holyoke St. Patrick’s Parade. Eight POWs and MIA servicemen from South Hadley will be honored.
To accomplish this, the committee is partnering with American Legion 260 in South Hadley, which is helping to provide information about the servicemen.
“Paradegoers like to see both new things that are part of the parade, along with many of the same traditions,” said Jacqueline L. Reardon, St. Patrick’s Committee of Holyoke liaison to South Hadley.
