This is an interesting location because it has a memorial for those that died in the Moose Lake/Cloquet/Duluth Fire of 1918. However, when I spotted Wallace Pedersen, a Marine that could have died during World War One in France, I new this was going to be a tribute to the Marines. I was unable to verify how or where Pvt Wallace died but the time frame makes it possible.
The U.S. Expeditionary Force was only in combat for seven months before the Armistice was signed. So only 116,516 deaths for the U.S. armed forces of which 53,402 died in combat. The rest died from diesease and accidents. The fact that more died from causes other than combat is appalling. ONLY 116,516 total. Uff dah.
So this is a reminder that some gave all.
