WWII Gold Star Veterans of Wyoming County New York
|
Author(s): James Gillen
|
|
 The citizens of Wyoming County, like many rural areas of New York State, made the supreme sacrifice during the second World War. James Gillen, a WWII veteran himself, spent years going through records, newspapers and speaking with families to come up with 103 men from Wyoming County who were missing or killed in action during WWII. Through the use of family photos, high school yearbooks and newspaper clippings from the era, 88 photographs were located to accompany almost every biography.
This book is to honor the memory of the men who gave their lives to protect our future.
