The Annual Spring Meeting of the New Berlin Historical Society is scheduled
for Wednesday, April 15th, 2015. It will be at the New Berlin Public
Library, 15105 Library Lane at 6:30pm.
This year's presentation will be the story of Richard Bong, Wisconsin farm
boy, who became an American Hero. He earned the title, "Ace of Aces" after
being credited with 40 combat victories as a P-38 pilot in WWII, for which
he received the Congressional Medal of Honor.
This program will be presented by John Dorcey of the Wisconsin Aviation Hall
of Fame, who will share with us the fascinating, little-known facts about
Richard Bong.
Coffee and light refreshments will be served.
