Nickolai Stevenson, a lieutenant in World War II who was in the first wave of the invasion force of Guadalcanal campaign, was the featured speaker. |
Amid a swarm of protestors, increased police detail, and national news coverage, Princeton Township Municipal Court Judge Russell Annich Jr. upheld his decision Tuesday afternoon to label as “vicious” and euthanize Congo, a two-and-a-half-year-old German shepherd for attacking a landscaper at the dog’s owners’ Township home in June.
Even though a 20-acre wooded expanse on Bunn Drive in Princeton Township’s northwestern section has long been zoned for development, environmentalists and residents filled Township Hall Monday to plea for a reconsideration of development zoning along a section of the Princeton Ridge.
As World War II veteran Nickolai Stevenson spoke of the constant presence of war in modern time Monday, a large crowd watched, absorbing Mr. Stevenson’s notion that Veterans’ Day a “day of memory,” is, in fact, a “shared day of memory.
“It varies for all of us here. For the younger ones, it evokes images of the War, or a war, and for others, it recalls stories told by relatives or friends who have served, and for others, it’s far more personal: perhaps a sense of loss.”
