New Holland retailer supports fundraiser for WWII ‘Brother’ Intelligencer Journal

For the first few years of his life, Richard Winters of the famed “Band of Brothers” of World War II, lived in the New Holland area.

So it is fitting that New Holland has become the first location in Lancaster County where one can donate toward a Richard Winters statue in France.

Steve Loewen, owner of the New Holland Radio Shack and president of the town’s historical society, has made the bracelets available in his store at 331 E. Main St.

The rubber, olive-green bracelets with Winters’ favorite saying “Hang Tough” stamped onto them, require a minimum donation of $1 each.
