from Hiram Rapids Ohio was a Private in Company C of the 604th Engineers.Only “history” I can share is the story about his return from France. Louie was married to my grandmother Frieda shortly before he was deployed and she lived at home with her parents while he was overseas.
Due to slow mail and poor communications, he arrived home before any news of his return reached her. He simply showed up on her parent’s doorstep late one evening out of the blue. She apparently forgave him for the shock since I remember going to their 50th wedding anniversary in the late 60’s photo of his grave marker in Hiram Rapids.
