In Memory

         The following list was created in the memory of the brave men and women from " Fremont County " that " Gave Their All " for their State and Country during World War II.  Soldiers, Sailors and Merchant Mariners, 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 .....

Fremont County had a total of:

" 45 "

Soldiers, Sailors & Merchant Mariners who
" Gave Their All "
during World War II !

Information was used from the following link for the " Army & Air Force "
at National Archives for this report:

Click below for Archive Reports :
Fremont County ~ " Page 1 "  ~  " Page 2 "

"Multiple" links at the National Archives
were used for the " Navy & Coast Guard " for this report.

     Also please note:   The records show these men and women as either enlisting, being originally from, or having strong ties to Fremont County.

     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 "   ......   

Whether a soldier or sailor was awarded medals or not   ......   

They are all
" HEROES "
in my book and deserve all the recognition they can get !!
