In April, the McKean County Historical Society received an anonymous letter sharing information regarding a citizen of Kane who became a POW in North Vietnam from May 19, 1967 – March 4, 1973. The letter also stated that the POW Day this year would be held on September 20.

Inspired by this information, the MCHS Program Committee began to formulate a program to honor and remember our POWs that is to be held on September 20 at the Eldred WWII Museum with Steve Appleby as the presenter.
