Military Service/ WWII/ Perry OK/ National Guard:
From the Cherokee Strip Museum, Perry OK:
"158th Field Artillery, 45th Army National Guard Division, Battery C was a special part of the Noble county community, and they marched off to glory in World War II. Some of them were barely 17 years old when they left Perry, but they came home as mature men, proud of the mission they had undertaken. Even at this time, 55 years later, it's not too late to give those brave and heroic men another salute."
