TEC 4 William “Frederick” Ervin, Jr never had a chance to reach 100 years old today. Instead, he sacrificed his life for our freedom.


If you have enjoyed reading the stories of the WWII fallen, Can you help write some stories? It's a big project. The more help, the better. 
Announcing "The Stories Behind the Stars", see https://www.storiesbehindthestars.org.
This crowd-sourced national project has the goal of compiling stories of all 400,000+ of the US World War II fallen in one free-to-access central database. We are going to need a lot of volunteers.
Anyone visiting a war memorial or gravesite will be able to scan the name of the fallen with a smartphone and his story will appear on the phone.


Frederick was born on July 31, 1920 in Onslow County, North Carolina. His parents, William “Fred” Ervin and Vera Ayden Lockamy, were also both born in North Carolina. His father served in the first world war as a US Army PFC, in the 117th Engineer Train in France. After the war, he worked as a salesman. Frederick had one brother, John David, who died at the age of 18 months. By 1940, according to the Federal Census, he was attending his first year of college.

Frederick enlisted in the US Army in November of 1942. He was assigned to the 394th Infantry Regiment, Headquarters Company, and trained at Camp Van Dorn, Mississippi, with the rank of Technician 4. A TEC 4 was a non-commissioned officer with skilled training as tank drivers, mechanics, cooks, etc. and was addressed as “Sergeant.” Ervin married Netha Mizzelle Lanier at Camp Van Dorn on July 23, 1943.

The 394th Regiment was part of the 99th Infantry Division, and arrived in England for further training in October 1944. They landed in Le Havre, France on November 6, 1944. The 99th first participated in the Rhineland campaign. By November 1944, the division moved to defend the Allied line in the Ardennes Forest in Belgium. This was considered a quieter location, ideal for training new units and resting units who had seen heavy fighting.

On December 16, 1944, the German army made its last large offensive move of the war against the thinly-spread line in the Ardennes. This surprise attack of tanks, paratroopers and infantry was met with fierce US resistance, despite the cold weather, difficult terrain and smaller numbers. They fought valiantly, delaying the German advance significantly, but were forced to fall back.

On December 17, 1944, the action reached Ervin’s 394th Headquarters Company in Hunningen, Belgium. Originally well behind the lines, headquarters personnel of every specialty took up arms. The Germans overran the position that day, and Ervin became one of the casualties. The Battle of the Bulge would continue until the end of January 1945, and became the third-highest battle in US history for fatalities. The Allies eventually took back the Ardennes, but at great cost.

Frederick Ervin’s grave is located in Ervin Cemetery, Ervintown, Onslow County, North Carolina.

Thank you, Frederick for your sacrifice. Let's Earn It for Frederick.

Ben was born on July 29, 1920 in Aberdeen, South Dakota one of ten children to Anton and Christina Axtman, immigrants from Russia. Anton was a cobbler and worked for the Webb-Carter Shoe Company in Aberdeen. 


Ben had nine siblings: Helen, Michael, Madeline, Eva, Mathilda, Casper, Rose, Anton, and Paul.


Ben's interests were fishing and hunting, his favorite sport, baseball.

He was a typical young man. Ben attended St. Mary's grade school, graduated the 8th grade but had no further education. He worked a various jobs including egg candler, the CCC in the Black Hills, and as a meat cutter for Swift Company.

His brother Sebastian remembers him as a jolly soul who always carried a smile and a laugh.

Ben enlisted in the service on September 1st, 1942 and trained at Camp Roberts and Ft. Ord, California and was sent overseas on May 23rd, 1943. He became a TEC5 and was stationed in England and eventually Germany as part of Company C, 850th Engineer Aviation Battalion then attached to the 3rd Armored Division nicknamed “The Third Herd”. The engineer aviation battalions were created to build airbase. In the case of 850th EAB it either built new airfields repaired airfields captured from the Germans.

He died on April 27, 1945. Since he was in a non-combat unit, it was likely due to an accident. Ben’s enlistment card has "Cancelled–Died Non Battle" written across it in red pencil. The booklet honoring the 850th Engineer Aviation Battalion has Ben listed on their memorial page. 

He has a government issued headstone at Saint Mary’s Cemetery in his home town of Aberdeen, South Dakota. I could find no awards issued to Ben.

Thank you, Benedict Frank Axtman for your sacrifice. Let's Earn It for Ben.

WW2 Luzon Fallen - Edward Maynard, 38th Infantry Division, died in his twin brother's arms

PFC Edward Maynard served in the same company of the 149th Regiment with his twin Edgar and younger brother Fred.
https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/192570017/edward-maynard

Edward Maynard never had a chance to reach 100 years old today. Instead, he sacrificed his life for our freedom April 22, 1945 on the Pacific island of Luzon. He died in the arms of his twin brother, 8,000 miles from their Kentucky home at the age of 24.

Edward was born on July 28, 1920 in Pinsonfork, Pike County, Kentucky, a coal mining area near the West Virginia border. His parents were Rudolph and Octavia Charles Maynard, both of whom were also born in Kentucky. His father was a coal miner. Edward and his twin brother, Edgar, were the oldest of nine children, seven boys and two girls. He attended McVeigh High School in Pike County and was married to Dixie May Maynard.


Edward and his twin brother, Edgar, and their younger brother, Fred, all enlisted in April 1941, and they served together in the 149th Infantry Regiment, 38th Infantry Division. In March and April of 1945, the 38th ID was engaged in fierce fighting with the Japanese in the rugged Zambales Mountains on the island of Luzon during the Allied drive to retake the Philippines.


Edward was struck by a bullet from a Japanese machine gun. Edgar fired into the machine gun nest and silenced it, and then carried his brother to the shade of a large rock. Their brother Fred came running to join them. The three brothers sat together and talked of home and family. Edward died in the arms of his twin brother. A newspaper account said the brothers could “shoot the eyes out of squirrels.” The three brothers were credited with killing 54 Japanese that day.


Edward’s body was returned home for burial in 1948. He is interred in the Maynard family cemetery in Pinsonfork, as are his parents.


Thank you, PFC Edward Maynard, for your sacrifice. Let's Earn It for Edward.

WW2 Attu Fallen - Medal of Honor hero Joe Martinez, 7th Infantry Division

Private Joe Martinez, 7th Infantry Division, earned the Medal of Honor for his actions at the Battle of Attu.
https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/7118977/joe-p_-martinez
https://www.nps.gov/subjects/worldwarii/alaskaandaleutians.htm
Joe P. Martinez never had a chance to reach 100 years old today. Instead, he sacrificed his life for our freedom.

If you have enjoyed reading the stories of the WWII fallen, Can you help write some stories? It's a big project. The more help, the better. 
Announcing "The Stories Behind the Stars", see https://www.storiesbehindthestars.org.

Anyone visiting a war memorial or gravesite will be able to scan the name of the fallen with a smartphone and his story will appear on the phone.


Joe was born on July 27, 1920 in Taos, New Mexico. His parents Celedon and Maria were also both born in New Mexico. His father worked as a farmer. Joe had four older brothers, one older sister and one younger sister. The family moved to Colorado in 1927. By 1940 Joe had completed eight years of education and was working as a farm laborer.

He was drafted into the army in August 1942. He became a private in Company K, 3rd Battalion, 32nd Infantry Regiment, 7th Infantry Division.

On May 11, 1943, the 7th ID landed on the Alaskan island of Attu to dislodge Japanese troops that had been there since the previous June. Despite poor weather and inexperienced troops, the Americans managed to overcome stiff resistance for the rest of the month. After two weeks of fighting Pvt. Martinez's unit found itself pinned down by enemy machine fire near Fish Hook Ridge. The enemy had the high ground and heavy snow made advancing difficult. Nevertheless, Private Martinez took the initiative to dislodge the enemy at the cost of his life. He was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor.   

The fighting on Attu would continue until May 30 and cost 549 American lives.

His Medal of Honor citation reads as follows:

For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity above and beyond the call of duty in action with the enemy. Over a period of several days, repeated efforts to drive the enemy from a key defensive position high in the snow-covered precipitous mountains between East Arm Holtz Bay and Chichagof Harbor had failed. 

On 26 May 1943, troop dispositions were readjusted and a trial coordinated attack on this position by a reinforced battalion was launched. Initially successful, the attack hesitated. In the face of severe hostile machine gun, rifle, and mortar fire, Pvt. Martinez, an automatic rifleman, rose to his feet and resumed his advance. Occasionally he stopped to urge his comrades on. His example inspired others to follow. After a most difficult climb, Pvt. Martinez eliminated resistance from part of the enemy position by BAR fire and hand grenades, thus assisting the advance of other attacking elements. This success only partially completed the action. 

The main Holtz-Chichagof Pass rose about 150 feet higher, flanked by steep rocky ridges and reached by a snow-filled defile. Passage was barred by enemy fire from either flank and from tiers of snow trenches in front. Despite these obstacles, and knowing of their existence, Pvt. Martinez again led the troops on and up, personally silencing several trenches with BAR fire and ultimately reaching the pass itself. Here, just below the knifelike rim of the pass, Pvt. Martinez encountered a final enemy-occupied trench and as he was engaged in firing into it he was mortally wounded. The pass, however, was taken, and its capture was an important preliminary to the end of organized hostileresistance.

His grave is at Ault Cemetery in Ault, Colorado.

The Navy troop transport Private Joe P. Martinez, active during the Korean War, was named in his honor.

As a Medal of Honor hero Private Martinez has a detailed Wikipedia page.

Thank you Private Martinez for your sacrifice. Let's Earn It for Joe.

WW2 Fallen - Bronze Star hero Oscar Alexis, 91st Infantry Division

Second Lieutenant Oscar Alexis earned the Bronze Star while serving with the 91st Infantry Division in Italy.
https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/127061686

Oscar Harold Alexis never had a chance to reach 100 years old today. Instead, he sacrificed his life for our freedom.


If you have enjoyed reading the stories of the WWII fallen, Can you help write some stories? It's a big project. The more help, the better.

Anyone visiting a war memorial or gravesite will be able to scan the name of the fallen with a smartphone and his story will appear on the phone.

 

Harold was born on July 26, 1920 in David City, Nebraska. His father Oscar Ebenezer Alexis was born in Pennsylvania to immigrants from Sweden. His mother Helen Victoria Carlson was born in Nebraska, also to Swedish immigrants. His father worked as a teacher in a public high school and as a cabinet maker. Harold had one younger sister. Harold was an active member in his church and the Boy Scouts, and graduated from Lincoln High School. He attended the University of Nebraska, where he was a member of the Pershing Rifles and Pi Delta Kappa, and graduated in 1942. 

 

Harold enlisted in the US Army in August 1942 and attended officer candidate school at Fort Benning, Georgia. He married the former Eloise Maxine Thompson on 8 March 1943. Harold was commissioned as a second lieutenant on 18 March 1943 and was assigned to Company E, 361st Infantry Regiment, of the 91st Infantry Division. 

 

The 91st ID, known as the Wild West Division, fought in World War I and was reactivated at Camp White, Oregon on 15 August 1942. After 18 months of rigorous and intensive training, the 91st departed the States in early April 1944 for combat in the European theater. The 91st was initially based at Port-aux-Poules, Algeria where it underwent several weeks of additional training, focused on amphibious invasion techniques. On 24 May 1944 the 361st Infantry Regiment was detached from the 91st and sent to join the Fifth Army in Italy. The 361st began combat operations with the 36th Infantry Division as part of the breakout from Anzio on 3 Jun 1944, resulting in the capture of Rome on 4 June 1944. The 361st then continued to fight their way through Italy against strong German resistance. 


Lt. Alexis was killed in action on 25 June 1944, likely during a firefight near the town of Scalvaia in the Tuscany region. According to his grave marker, at some point he was awarded the Bronze Star but I could not find a citation for it.

 

Oscar Harold Alexis was initially buried in Italy and was reinterred in Lincoln Memorial Park in Lincoln, Nebraska in 1949. In addition to his widow, he left behind a seven month old daughter. 

 

Thank you Lt. Alexis for your sacrifice. Let's Earn It for Oscar.
