(Waltham, MA---28 May 2010) Local Resident Pays Tribute to
Medal of Honor Hero: 72 Year Old Tradition Continues
This past Thursday local resident Paul Covell of South Dennis
and a member of the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company
of Massachusetts conducted a memorial tribute wreath laying
ceremony. The service was held at Mount Feake Cemetery in
Waltham at the gravesite of Congressional Medal of Honor recipient
Major George Maynard. Maynard was also a member of the "Ancients"
and since his passing, the company, based out of Faneuil Hall
in Boston, has placed a wreath at their comrade's gravesite
for Memorial Day. This year marks the 72nd anniversary of
this tradition. Six members of the company accompanied LT
Covell, who currently serves as 1st Lieutenant of the company
and will command the company in 2011. Major Maynard's uniform
and Congressional Medal of Honor are display at the Ancient's
Armory located on the 4th Floor of Faneuil Hall. The exhibit
is free and open to the public.
