LAWYERSVILLE — The Lawyersville Reformed Church hosted the Schoharie County American Legion Honor Guard on February 15 as they presented a very moving memorial service that paid tribute to the Four Chaplains of WWII who selflessly sacrificed their lives rescuing military personnel and civilians aboard the American troop ship USAT Dorchester after it had been torpedoed by a German submarine.    Pictured from left back row:  Frederick Wilms, Richard Smith, Bill Cary.
