Editor’s Note: The fifth in our Friday series examining the news about Bedford that was published in the Concord Enterprise 100 years ago this week; to contact the author, please email [email protected] This week’s article is especially poignant as the United States will observe the Centenary of Armistice Day, marking the end of World War I, on November 11, 2018
Roll of Honor of Bedford Boys in the U. S. Service
The Public Safety committee acting as a committee on permanent records earnestly requests any person noticing any error or omission in this list, kindly to notify George R. Blinn, chairman.
There will be a card catalogue later for all relatives and friends of our boys in the service, to consult, and it is hoped information will be sent of changes in address or appointments to different service. A photograph is much desired for filing with each card.
