Welcome to the 2014 edition of the Oshkosh Northwestern Media’s Salute to Veterans, our annual keepsake edition. This guide contains two sections: One for individual tributes to veterans submitted by veterans and their families honoring their service; and the other a listing of veterans from Winnebago County who made the ultimate sacrifice serving their country.

The sections are designed to coincide with the two federal holidays for veterans:

• Memorial Day, which is observed on the last Monday

in May and commemorates the men and women who died while in military service. Pay tribute to the U.S. men and women who died during military service by observing a national monument of remembrance with a minute of silence at 3 p.m. Monday, May 26. In honor of the fallen soldiers, a Reading of the Names Ceremony will begin at 7 a.m. Monday, May 26, at Memorial Square at South Park. The Oshkosh Patriotic Council Memorial Day Procession and Services start at 9 a.m. at the Winnebago County Courthouse; procession down

Algoma Boulevard to the Riverside Cemetery follows.

• Veterans Day, which will be observed on Tuesday, Nov. 11. Veterans Day was originally called “Armistice Day” when President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed this day in Novem-ber 1919. On Nov. 11, 1947, Raymond Weeks, a World War II veteran, organized a “Na-tional Veterans Day” parade in Birmingham, Ala., to recognize veterans of all wars. This cele-bration led Congress to change Armistice Day to Veterans Day in 1954 to recognize veterans of all U.S. wars.

Publish Date: May 25, 2014. Salute to Veterans is published by The Oshkosh Northwestern. Contents of the section are for The Northwestern.

Cliff was appointed to be the first veteran representative in the employment office in Oshkosh in 1944. He was also a member of the Last Man’s Club. He was honored for being a member of the American Legion for over 60 years. He received the Purple Heart and a medal and bar for Aisne-Marne and other service bars and medals. Cliff’s love of his country and pride of the military soldiers of any kind was lonely surpassed by the pride he had for his 14 children; six of them were sons who all served in the military. Richard, Donald and Wayne were in the Navy, Jerry and David were in the Army and Kenny was in the Marines. Cliff and Carrie’s greatest sorrow came when their youngest son Kenneth was killed

by a land mine, one week before leaving Vietnam. He was killed while leading his men into battle and was hit by a shell fragment. The tradition of Cliff continues on as his great grandchildren now serve their country.

We were part of the Wisconsin National Guard, 32nd Red Arrow Division. There were three units from Oshkosh; Company H, a heavy weapons company; a Service company, my unit; and the 127th Infantry band. President Roosevelt federalized all the National Guard units in the entire country to become the Army of the United States just 14 months before Pearl Harbor. I was one of the first American Troops to stop the Japanese advancement on Australia. When the 32nd Wisconsin Division was mobilized, one our units from Janesville, the 32nd Tank Company, was sent to the Philippines.
