Decorations: Purple Heart
Stanley came to Millis with his family as a young man from North Adams. He worked for a time at the Clicquot Club before joining the Marine Corps. We remember him walking around town in his dress blues. He was commanding officer of a pack howitzer unit of the 12th Marine Field Artillary when he was killed in action at Piva Forks, Bougainville. He left behind his parents, his brother Fred and his sisters, Betty, Lucy, Barbara and Winnie. He is buried at the US Military Cemetery, Manilla. His monument is at the corner of Exchange and Union Streets in Millis.
