Wounded 100 Years Ago Today

Clipping from the “Berks County Democrat” (Boyertown, PA) - January 25, 1919

The name of Clinton R. Nyce, son of Benjamin and Elizabeth Nyce, of this place, appears in Friday's casualty list as severely wounded. He is a member of Co. L. 166th Infantry, went over the top with his company eleven times and was wounded on Nov. 9 two days before the armistice was signed in the Battle of the Argonne Forest.

Very nice.

 

I was fortunate enough to know 2 members of Company L.

 

I've been thinking about them and the other Boys of '17 as the armistice approaches.
