Box Lunch Talk: An Afternoon Talk with Melvin Hurwitz & Steve Bowersox

Mr. Hurwitz grew up in Westminster, MD to a family of a local jewelry store owner. Melvin graduated from Westminster High School in 1942 and, like his other three brothers, joined the service during World War II. Mr. Hurwitz was a waist gunner and radio man on a B-17 that flew bombing missions over Europe.

More recently Melvin has become a bit of an international celebrity because he attended the 80^th anniversary of the D-Day landings.

He will celebrate his 100^th birthday in March 2025. He will share stories of his life in Westminster and beyond.

As always, there is no registration for Box Lunch Talks. You bring your lunch, and we provide the drinks and desserts (thanks to our volunteers and staff). The cost is $3 for HSCC members and $7 for nonmembers.
