Too many people are thinking of security instead of opportunity. They seem more afraid of life than death. -James F. Byrnes (1879 - 1972)

Corporal Wesley G. Ross
| Although details
accompanying this International News Photo are somewhat sketchy, it
seems that this funeral service, with full military honors, was for
Corporal Wesley G. Ross. Although he was a December 7th, 1941,
Pearl Harbor victim, this service was held years later, on October
31st, 1947. Special arrangements were made between the local
post of the VFW and the war department, to use the same caisson used
earlier for President Roosevelt's funeral. |
