This is a continuation of a post from earlier this week.
I’ve finished an index of Virginia Glee Club members who gave their lives in World War II. Here are a few more stories:
Mason Williams was shot down over Munich at the end of 1944.
John McCown died fighting in the mountains near Florence and is buried there.
John Gordon died serving in the cavalry in Europe.
Moss Plunkett was killed in action in New Guinea in 1943.
Louis Smith died two months before V-J Day, somewhere in the Pacific Theatre.
Alfred Marshall Luttrell, like Robert Gamble and Edmund Van Valkenburg, was killed in action, though we know nothing further about his death.
In addition to the casualties, a further ninety-eight Glee Club alumni are known to have served in the war.
