Programs, parades set for Memorial Day here Monday

Veterans of World War II, whose numbers continue to dwindle, will be guests of honor at Antigo’s Memorial Day tribute Monday.

“This year is the 70th anniversary of V.E. Day and V.J. Day,” Mike Piller, commander of Veterans of Foreign Wars Post No. 2563, this year’s host for the observance, said. “We are honoring WWII veterans by inviting them to lead our parade.”

Veterans will ride at the parade’s head in vehicles provided by Badgerland Classics and Customs Car Club .
