Description:Excerpt from Victory: Waseca County, Minnesota, in the World WarOf this splendid army, more than 750 were from Waseca County, Minnesota. Fighting and training to fight in every arm of the United States Forces - doughboy, artilleryman, Marine, Sailor, Aviator, Nurse, - they brought glory to their county and their country. Represented in almost every military center of this country and France, they upheld the name of Waseca County's Civil and Spanish War veterans before them. In every test, they excelled, and now they have returned to their homes and their folks, most of them, with the honor that comes only to heroes. While they were gone to fight the battles of their country and to protect the honor of their loved ones, those who were forced to remain at home were not wanting in supporting them. Liberty Bonds amounting to millions were purchased at every request of the government, to clothe and feed and equip and arm the armies who went overseas. Thousands of dollars was cheerfully and quickly given to support the various inde pendent activities whose aim it was to give temporal and spiritual comfort to the boys in camps and in the field. Red Cross solicitors found an eager response in every corner of Waseca County and from every man, woman and child at home, to support that wonderful organization whose only aim was to give comfort and relieve suffering among the heroes in France. Mothers and sisters of the county worked day and night, with the enthusiasm which only a woman's love can give, knitting and sewing for the American Red Cross. Every movement that was ever inaugurated in Waseca County - and there were scores of them - that called upon the people at home for their time and their money, was cheerfully and promptly responded to. Patriotism and loyalty were the two lone words in every citizen's vocabulary, and a more loyal county did not exist in the United States.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
