j PORTUGUESE-AMERICANS PAl TRIBUTE TO

DEAD-Parents and friends of men of PortugueseAmerican extraction yesterday afternoon dedicated a mo nument at Charles Pereira park in
honor of those who have died in this-war. Above, left to right: Mrs. Mary Pereira , mother of
the man for whom the park is named, Mr. and Mrs. T. F. O'Connor , parents of another hero from
fh e locality, Daniel J. O'Connor, with their younger son, and Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Perry, par~nts of Joseph Perry, another boy from the neighborhood who died in action in this w ar.

B y GENER. CASEY
Bekind today's Army list of '"30 Massachusetts youths
and men killed in action in North Africa, the South Pacific
and Europe lies many a heart-rending story.
Probabl'y the most touching is that of the Lowell
soldier who was expecting a furlough
home from a southern camp and planned
to take advantage of the time by marrying his sweeth ear t. Insteadt just w,hen
the furlough was due, he was sent overseas and went to his death in the North
African invasion.
The soldier was Private Charles
Pereira, better known to Lowell friends
w.lio . admired his athletic pro vess as
Charles Perry. His heart-broken fiance is Miss Beatrice
AJ::ii;e~"i.i., also of L bWell.
· There are stc,ries of men who died in the sky, on
lan,-C ~d sea, and, throu_gh this new casualty: list, the
fignting touched ·11timately for the first · e several Bay
State communities, whose residents learned of heir first
eighbors killed in action.
· Amorig these w·as 25-year-old Lieut. George George,
:flrst man from Holbrook to be drafted, first to be com,issioned an officer\ and first to die in action.
, t • n6ther was private Thomas F . Lanigan, well-known
Maynard High School athlete and the first Maynard man
-reported killed.
Two Northampton young men on the list, private first
class William W. Puchalski and private Francis S.
Ansanitis, were inducted on the same day-March 4, 1941
-'-and apparently were killed about the same time •••
possibly on the same day.
Brief sketches of Massachusetts men who died a hero's
death on fields of battle are printed below.

THESE STANDOUT PICTURES HIGHLIGHT FOUR YEARS OF GLOBAL WAR
IN THE CHILL dawn of Sept. I,
1939, the mighty air power and
land panzer forces of Nazi Germany struck with fury into
Poland, writing with steel and
blood the answer to the latest
9f the political crises that had
ocked Europe for a decade .
Two days later England and
France declared war. The second gk&gt;bal struggle in 25 years
was on. Today 32 United Nations are aligned against 11 of
the Axis. Forty million men and
women are under arms. The
seven events shown here stand
out at the top among others as
milestones in World war II.

.

Mr. J. B. Twigsbottom, a very pretentious business man with no thought
of anything but that of money, correctness and more money, leaves his
cool, comfortable suite of offices in America and comes to Tropicana for the
first time to make a personal survey of his coffee plantation. He plans to
speed up the native workers who to Twigsbottom are a lazy lot and must
be taught the modern way of productiveness. Accompanying him on the
trip, are his daughter Suzie and her private tutor Mary-Anne. Suzie is a
young brat with the inimitable knack of getting herself into trouble and the
loving quality of mixing everybody else in it. The child's tutor Mary Anne,
is young but obviously the schoolmarm type. Travelling companion of Mr.
Twigsbottom is Ronnie, a likeable young chap, author by profession and a
wolf by choice. Ronnie comes to Tropicana to write a book around the life
and customs of the natives. Ronnie has made several harmless passes at
Mary Anne, and her woman's intuition tells her he may have forcible ideas
and so she remains quite distant. Also on the boat are three American
musicians and two chorus girls, part of a travelling show group who too late
fin? the~selves ~oing to Tropica~a inst~ad of New York. This strange group
arrives m Trop1cana on a seethmg mid-afternoon .. ......................................... .....

ROBERT - HERVIEUX WEDDING
COMMANDS GRID FORCES-Greater-Lowell is righteously
proud of Henry Mazur. The Army football team's star halfback
not only won acclaim this year as one of the great backs of the
nation, but also the confidence of his own squad which over the
week-end elected him captain of the Army eleven of 1942. Just
a few seasons back, he was the star of Lowell high's backfield.
In the heart of Lowell, Mazur already holds a niche with the "immortals" of this sports-loving city.

                  <text>These items, collected over time by Dimas Espinola, detail the Portuguese community in Lowell from the 1920s through the 2000s. Items include Holy Ghost Society documents, newspaper articles, photographs, and event posters.&#13;
&#13;
Biographical Note&#13;
Born on the Azorean island of Terceira, in the village of Biscoitos, in 1950; Dimas Espinola immigrated with his family to the United States in the late 1960s, settling in Lowell’s “Back Central” (predominately Portuguese) neighborhood; his father, formerly a furniture maker in Biscoitos, obtained a job as a loom fixer in the Wannalancit Mills; his mother worked in a shoe factory; Mr. Espinola received his formal education in schools on Terceira and, upon arriving in Lowell, he secured a work permit and, at nearly 17 years of age, he was employed in a manufacturing job in the Paris shoe factory on Bridge Street; at the same time Mr. Espinola, a communicant at St. Anthony’s Church, began working closely with the pastor, Rev. John F. deSilva; among his activities was translating English for Portuguese members of the community, which included various issues affecting the neighborhood, including a state proposed extension of the Lowell Connector highway that threatened many homes and businesses in the “Back Central” neighborhood; in addition to his community activism and work with the church, Mr. Espinola also became involved with the Portuguese-American Center (and its soccer team), as well as the Holy Ghost Society; he remained in the shoe industry for many years, becoming a foreman and factory manager.&#13;

                  <text>This collection includes photographs, newspaper clippings, and documents from the Portuguese American War Veterans Post 1 organization in Peabody, Massachusetts. This includes photo albums of Peabody during World War II, newspaper clippings related to Portuguese soldiers and PAWV Post 1 members who fought in World War II, photographs of the Ladies' Auxiliary and other PAWV Post 1 members and related organizations, images from city-wide parades, articles about the organization's fundraising efforts and community service work over the years, letters from government representatives and politicians, membership records and lists, certificates recognizing the military service of PAWV Post 1 members, and other documents related to the members and history of the Portuguese American War Veterans Post 1.&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Historical Overview: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Information sourced from the "Portuguese American War Veterans Post 1 membership brochure" as found on PADA. Edits and additional information have been added by the archivist.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Portuguese American War Veterans Post 1 organization was founded on December 13th, 1945 in Peabody, MA. In an effort led by the organization’s first Commander, Mr. Henry Leal, in his home on 4 1/2 Sprague Street, a group of World War I and World War II veterans decided to charter a veterans' support group in an old elementary school building on Tremont Street. Founded as a social club to support the large number of Portuguese veterans returning to Peabody after the war, the PAWV Post 1 evolved to become one of the primary centers and homes for veterans and community service organizations on the North Shore as well as other community endeavors. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The original members of the PAWV Post 1 included: Commander Henry Leal, Edward M. Madruga, Joseph P. Sousa, Charles J. Silvaria, John F. Luz, Francis E. Paul, Anthony Silva, Albert J. Silva, Joseph M. Ortins and early members Americo Martins and Tony Pimenta. The group had agreed to organize under the mission to "uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America, to encourage a spirit of comradeship among the members, to preserve the memory of our associations in the Great Wars, to promote good will and peace on earth and to devote our comradeship to mutual helpfulness to Veterans and their families." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eligible members of the Portuguese American War Veterans Post 1 include: Veterans who hold a DD-214 or NGB 22 discharge document under "Honorable" conditions from the United States Armed Forces, or any Member still serving on Active or Inactive Duty. Any other person who, regardless of veteran status, upon reaching the age of 21 can submit an application to become an Associate Member of PAWV Post 1. Other tenant organizations represented by the PAWV Post 1 include the Yankee Division Veterans Association (YDVA), the Second Corps of Cadets (2CCVA), the Polish League of American Veterans (PLAV) and the Banda Recreativa Portuguesa. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Over the past eighty years, the PAWV has contributed to the City of Peabody's Memorial Day remembrances and parades, Dia de Portugal celebrations, and assisted with the Portuguese community’s contributions to the City of Peabody’s Centennial celebration and parade. As a result of its work and contributions to the Portuguese community, the Portuguese American War Veterans Post 1, was nominated by the Portuguese American Leadership Council of the United States (PALCUS) for a National Community Award, which was presented to Commander John Silva on October 11, 2014 in Washington DC. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today, the members of the PAWV Post—which include the post-WWII veterans of Korea, Vietnam, Persian Gulf, Kosovo, Bosnia, Afghanistan and Iraq—continue to celebrate and honor their military service by striving to be a cornerstone for veteran support and community service in the North Shore area.</text>

                  <text>This collection includes photographs, newspaper clippings, and documents from the Portuguese American War Veterans Post 1 organization in Peabody, Massachusetts. This includes photo albums of Peabody during World War II, newspaper clippings related to Portuguese soldiers and PAWV Post 1 members who fought in World War II, photographs of the Ladies' Auxiliary and other PAWV Post 1 members and related organizations, images from city-wide parades, articles about the organization's fundraising efforts and community service work over the years, letters from government representatives and politicians, membership records and lists, certificates recognizing the military service of PAWV Post 1 members, and other documents related to the members and history of the Portuguese American War Veterans Post 1.&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Historical Overview: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Information sourced from the "Portuguese American War Veterans Post 1 membership brochure" as found on PADA. Edits and additional information have been added by the archivist.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Portuguese American War Veterans Post 1 organization was founded on December 13th, 1945 in Peabody, MA. In an effort led by the organization’s first Commander, Mr. Henry Leal, in his home on 4 1/2 Sprague Street, a group of World War I and World War II veterans decided to charter a veterans' support group in an old elementary school building on Tremont Street. Founded as a social club to support the large number of Portuguese veterans returning to Peabody after the war, the PAWV Post 1 evolved to become one of the primary centers and homes for veterans and community service organizations on the North Shore as well as other community endeavors. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The original members of the PAWV Post 1 included: Commander Henry Leal, Edward M. Madruga, Joseph P. Sousa, Charles J. Silvaria, John F. Luz, Francis E. Paul, Anthony Silva, Albert J. Silva, Joseph M. Ortins and early members Americo Martins and Tony Pimenta. The group had agreed to organize under the mission to "uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America, to encourage a spirit of comradeship among the members, to preserve the memory of our associations in the Great Wars, to promote good will and peace on earth and to devote our comradeship to mutual helpfulness to Veterans and their families." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eligible members of the Portuguese American War Veterans Post 1 include: Veterans who hold a DD-214 or NGB 22 discharge document under "Honorable" conditions from the United States Armed Forces, or any Member still serving on Active or Inactive Duty. Any other person who, regardless of veteran status, upon reaching the age of 21 can submit an application to become an Associate Member of PAWV Post 1. Other tenant organizations represented by the PAWV Post 1 include the Yankee Division Veterans Association (YDVA), the Second Corps of Cadets (2CCVA), the Polish League of American Veterans (PLAV) and the Banda Recreativa Portuguesa. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Over the past eighty years, the PAWV has contributed to the City of Peabody's Memorial Day remembrances and parades, Dia de Portugal celebrations, and assisted with the Portuguese community’s contributions to the City of Peabody’s Centennial celebration and parade. As a result of its work and contributions to the Portuguese community, the Portuguese American War Veterans Post 1, was nominated by the Portuguese American Leadership Council of the United States (PALCUS) for a National Community Award, which was presented to Commander John Silva on October 11, 2014 in Washington DC. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today, the members of the PAWV Post—which include the post-WWII veterans of Korea, Vietnam, Persian Gulf, Kosovo, Bosnia, Afghanistan and Iraq—continue to celebrate and honor their military service by striving to be a cornerstone for veteran support and community service in the North Shore area.</text>
