QUINCY – A pair of Quincy roads are set to be named for two military generals with strong ties to the city as part of a new bridge and park project underway downtown.
City councilors Monday night voted to name two new roads being constructed as part of the project General McConville Way and General Joseph F. Dunford Drive. In the theme of the bridge and the park, we found it appropriate to honor two of the more modern day generals, Mayor Thomas Koch said. It kind of has a nice touch to it. Both of them were sons of veterans and came from pretty amazing local families.
Man of the Year: Gen. Raheel Sharif
Gen. Raheel Sharif is changing Pakistan forever.
From under-trial Pervez Musharraf’s hospitalization at the Armed Forces Institute of Cardiology on Jan. 2 to the attempt on news anchor Hamid Mir’s life on April 19 to the launch of Operation Zarb-e-Azb in mid-June to the attack on Peshawar’s Army Public School on Dec. 16, the year past has been a period of extraordinary adjustments within Pakistan’s much disturbed civil-military equation.
The year began badly enough with Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif putting off his handpicked new Army chief, Gen. Raheel Sharif, by pursuing the high-treason trial against former Army chief and president Musharraf. The prime minister also showed “excessive enthusiasm” for closer relations with India, attending the investiture of Narendra Modi as India’s prime minister even as the Indian Army was killing civilians with mortar fire across the Line of Control in Kashmir.
