The impressive war memorial honoring our Defiance County soldiers who lost their lives in any war where the United States was involved is worth studying. As they sacrificed their lives, families were left at home mourning their loss.
This begins a series of blogs dedicated to each soldier listed on the World War I section of the memorial. These soldiers were either killed in action, missing in action, executed or taken as prisoners of war. As much research as is possible will be completed to tell their story and personalize their experiences.
If you are related to any of these soldiers and would like to bring forth a story or photo to add, please contact us. We welcome your assistance. Even if the post has already been published, more can be added later.
