War is an awful, miserable thing. I wish it had never started.
Even as I write this letter in a fox hole, shells and bullets are whizzing all around .....
Some of the shells are falling pretty close .....
If I ever come home,
I'll never want to talk about some of the stuff I've seen or done .....
Written by Delaware Soldier :
Sgt. Herman Cohen
In his last letter home to his parent ...
He was
" Killed In Action "
on July 9, 1944 in France !
All lettering shown in " BRIGHT BLUE " on this website are links
Thursday, " July 3, 2025 "
( Originally created in August, 1999 )
All changes should be completed by:
" Mid-July, 2025 ! "
The following list was created in the memory of the
" Delawarean's "
who
"Gave Their All "
to their State and Country during World War II.
Soldier's, Sailor's, and Merchant Mariners are all included in 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 .....
Delaware had a total of:
" 763 "
Soldiers and Sailors who "Gave Their All" during World War II
( I'm 99.9% sure all from Delaware are included )

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 !!
