Day 38

Two historic/memorial markers on the main (?) entrance to St. Anthony's School on Somerville Ave.

 

The first (and more historic, erected in 1890):

Headquarters of Brig-Gen. NATHANIEL GREENE, in command of Rhode Island Troops during Siege of Boston, 1775-6.

 

The second, a memorial, says,

~ In loving memory ~

P.F.C. MARTY FILOSI

Born April 6, 1920

Killed In Action

Venfero, Italy

Nov. 9, 1943

"He became immortal the day he died."

 

A quick Google search failed to yield any info as to who Filosi was.
