Bronze plaque is unveiled on birthplace building.

  Photo below: Sharing the honors of the unveiling are Gen. Paul Funk and Deborah Shapiro, the latter representing The Middlesex County Historical Society and past president thereof. On the right is the entrance (508 Main St.) leading up to the 2nd floor apartment where Maurice Rose was born.

  Photo above: A serious occasion, yes, but a happy one too, as is evident by the faces of Gen. Funk and 3rd Armored Div. vet Dominic Rizzo of Rocky Hill, CT. The latter fought under Gen. Rose in WWII and has been the long-time national president of the 3rd Armored's 486th Anti-Aircraft Battalion Association.
