Society speaker: WWII POW

From Arcadia Historical Society President Gene Glasco:

Almost fifty Arcadia Historical Society members and guests came together on Saturday, March 9, 2013, at the Arcadia Association of Realtors’ multi-purpose room to enjoy delicious bagels supplied by Leena Sankary of Wells Fargo Home Mortgage Services before settling in to hear ninety-two year old Wanda Damburg tell her story of how she– along with her mother and father– were arrested and incarcerated for thirty six months in two different internment camps during the 1941-1945 Japanese occupation of the Philippines.
