(UPDATE BELOW!)
Be sure to read "The Naming of the St. Quentin Post", researched and
presented by Post Historian Rob Smith this past Veterans' Day. It tells
the story of two men from Ely, Joseph Dvorak and Charles Noska, who
died near the city of St. Quentin, France in World War I. Smith does a
wonderful job of taking us back in time and describing the conditions
of the war the men experienced, as well as conditions back home. Other
Ely area men who died in World War I were Joseph Filipi, Joseph F. Kriz,
and Frank Moses, Jr. Read the story at St. Quentin Post website
UPDATE:
Here is a photo of his grave (provided by Rob Smith, who says - I visited his grave at the Somme American Cemetery in France. It is a gorgeous place.)
