Charlestown Navy Yard and its famous frigate, the USS Constitution, served
as the backdrop for the Boston Regional World War II 60th Anniversary
Commemoration on June 18th. The United States Air Force Band of Liberty’s
Ambassadors, in their vintage “pinks and greens” uniforms,
provided ceremonial music and Glenn Miller selections for the festivities.
The event is one of four Department of Defense
WWII 60th Anniversary tributes to be presented throughout the country
this summer. The Ambassadors shared the program with Massachusetts
Lieutenant Governor Kerry Healey, the USO Liberty Belles Show Troupe
from New York City, and the Boston
Schools Grades 4-8 All-City Choir.
