the ALTOONA TRIBUNE SATURDAY, JUNE 9, 1923 Page 13 OF DIVISION IS FINALLY COMPILED Five Hundred Men of 28th in District Will Be Visited The history of Pennsylvania's own division has finally been completed. Neither time nor money has been spared in order to finish the most com- plete record that has ever been piled of any division in the American army. There is no detail or name omitted of all those who participated in the World war. Reading this history, you will find why Sons of Pennsylvania were called the "Men of Iron."

He will be located at the Anderson House for the next six weeks, visiting every one of the 500 men connected with this outfit in Altoona and vicinity. DEATHS WILLIAM M.
