PEMBROKE, N.Y. (AP) — A push is on to name the new national cemetery in western New York for a decorated veteran of two wars who founded what became the Central Intelligence Agency.
Veteran’s group leaders and Sen. Charles Schumer visited the site in Pembroke in Genesee County on Monday. They said the first veterans’ cemetery in the Buffalo-Rochester area should be named for Gen. William “Wild Bill” Donovan, who led the Office of Strategic Services during World War II.
