Daily News | Atlantic City pledges $430K to secure home for World War II memorial honoring medic Bernie Friedenberg
ATLANTIC CITY — Even after three years, 100 sidewalk fundraisers in front of liquor stores, and a pledge of $300,000 from the city, the Friends of Bernie Friedenberg were still $133,000 short.
“Am I happy,” said Susan Friedenberg, in disbelief, standing at the future site of the memorial to her father. “Am I even standing here?” The group plans flags, illumination, educational kiosks, paving, and a lighted pathway that will connect the Friedenberg memorial to the Liberty in Distress memorial. The total cost is about $900,000, he said.
