| | CORP. WARNER E. BROOKHOUSE
Serial No. 2,048,228
Munger, Mich.
Coming from the 310th Ammunition Train, he joined the Battery in France.
Brookhouse was a driver, and a leadman on one of the guns.
While drawing the guns into position at Tautecourt Farm, his presence of mind in calming his horses, frightened by the mud and dirt thrown up by the shell explosions, which hit the horses, won for him commendation from the field command.
Tall and of fine physical appearance, he was a good type of soldier. He had a quiet disposition and was popular with the boys.
His record in France won for him the rank of Corporal upon his return to America, at Camp Mills. |
