Comment on Monument dedicated in Harrod

HARROD — A memorial dedicated to the memory of four Ohio sailors who were among 74 seamen to perish aboard the USS Frank E. Evans in 1969 was dedicated Saturday morning during an at-times emotional, two-hour ceremony. The small Allen County village was selected as the Ohio site of the memorial honoring the four servicemen from the Buckeye State who died when the naval destroyer sunk in the South China Sea on June 3, 1969.
