A Story of WWI: Lost Battalion and Two Coeur d’Alene Doughboys

June 1, 2023 - June 1, 2023

• Email

Don Pishner will tell the story of two local men that enlisted together to fight for the United States in what they believed to be the “war to end all wars.” Each became a member of the 308th Infantry, identified by a shoulder patch emblem of the Statue of Liberty. The 308th reportedly received the most military awards and ribbons of any United States service group – soldiers and airmen, as well as a message carrier pigeon, named Cher Ami.
