While doing the “Honor Roll” posting for yesterday’s blog post I compared the names on the Chesterfield War Memorial with those listed on National Archive and records Administration (NARA).
The following personnel are listed on NARA’s “World War II Honor List of Dead and Missing Army and Army Air Forces Personnel” from Chesterfield County, South Carolina; but are missing from the memorial.
Since the "Honor Roll" is in remembrance of those who gave their lives for our freedom, I have revised to listing.
