SouthCoast honoring those who served at these 2026 Veterans Day events

Veterans Day is just around the corner, and communities across the SouthCoast are coming together to thank the neighbors, friends and family members who have served in the Armed Forces. A veteran is defined as “a person who served in the active military, naval, or air service, and who was discharged or released therefrom under conditions other than dishonorable.” U.S. veterans make up less than 6.1% of the total adult population, with about 15.8 million veterans living in the U.S. Originally called Armistice Day , Veterans Day became a legal holiday on May 13, 1938, to be observed each year on Nov. 11. The holiday traces its roots to World War I, the “war to end all wars,” which ended with an armistice signed in Europe on Nov. 11, 1918. Today, it’s a chance to say thank you to the members of our community who have served, and to those who are serving now. Looking for a way to show your gratitude? Here’s a list of events across the SouthCoast where you can mark Veterans Day and celebrate the veterans in your hometown. Acushnet Veterans Day Parade: Nov. 8, 10 a.m. Come cheer on Acushnet’s veterans at the town’s Veterans

'Dominant' 6-foot-6 senior paces Marshfield football's mighty run game

MARSHFIELD — Through an often-open hatch in the roof, a fierce downpour muddied the press box's tile floor and exposed the scoreboard operators to the outside. The Marshfield High football team's platoon of running backs, meanwhile, kept dry and upright behind the 6-6, 296-pound human shield of Aidan Nicholson. The senior right tackle helped the Rams churn out over 100 yards of ground-game offense in a 44-0 victory over Silver Lake in the opening round of the Division 3 state tournament on Friday, Nov. 6. Junior running back Jack Giannetti blasted in for 3 touchdown runs. No. 3 Marshfield will host No. 6 North Attleboro in the Elite Eight next (date/time TBD). "He's a dominant offensive linemen," head coach Chris Arouca said of Nicholson. "We can't run behind him enough sometimes. The other guys are all good, too, but when he gets on his blocks and the running backs follow him, it's tough to stop." Nicholson, a three-year starter, began playing in second grade and first informally practiced with the Arouca's varsity Rams as an eighth-grader ineligible to play in his age bracket due to his size. Nicholson, who is still fielding collegiate offers, had three older brothers (Will, Tyler
