" Every man's life ends the same way " It is only the details of how he lived,
and how he died,
that distinguish one man from another !

The following list was created in the memory of the brave men and women from " Charles County, Maryland " that " Gave Their All " for their State and Country during World War II. Soldiers, Sailors and Merchant Marines, are all included on this listing.There are personal " Online Memorials " for each of these honored men and women that were created for them by using the " Find A Grave Website ". On the " Majority " of the online memorials you will see a small biography for each soldier which may include:
Parent's, Grandparent's & Sibling's Names,
where & when they were born,
where they grew up,
when & where they enlisted in the service,
the military unit they were part of,
" AND "
where and how they actually died during the war !If you see one without a biography, picture, or you have more information on them please send me an Email at russpickde@comcast.net - ( or by clicking here )
I'll update their records as quickly as possible .....
Charles County had a total of:
" 37 "
Soldiers and Sailors who "Gave Their All" during World War II
( I'm 99.9% sure all from Charles County are included )
Also Please Note: The records show these men and women as either enlisting, being originally from, or having strong ties to Charles County. Therefore some of these soldiers may not necessarily be from the particular county noted.
On some of the records you will note that the "Cemetery/Memorial" column shows "unknown". If you know where any of these men or women are interred please let me know by sending me an "email - (by clicking here)" and I'll insure that the information is noted for their record.
Whether a soldier or sailor was " Killed In Action ", " Missing In Action ",
" Died of Wounds ", or even died in the " Line Of Duty " ......
They are all " HEROES " in my book and deserve all the recognition they can get !!
