Contributing Project Epinal Cemetery Project Curator Bates, Chris Cepero, Laura Digital Collection <a href="https://richesmi.cah.ucf.edu/map/" target="_blank">RICHES MI</a> Transcript Post Dean, Cold Killing May 29, 1944 On May 27, 1994 at 11:45, in the sky of Hautes-Vosges, combat engages in air between German and Anglo-American fighter aircrafts. This story is recounted today by André Clair who remembered that awful day: << It was a beautiful day, the children of the City Nathan Levy, play on the sidewalk of Kelsh Boulevard. Suddenly, just above, very close to the ground, many fighter planes tear the silence >>. Never were there so many planes appeared in such tight rows. The fight lasts more than an hour. We saw seven aircrafts downward and fallen in flames. The first lieutenant Post Dean managed to parachute from his plane in flames. Injured, he landed in Thalet, a town in Valtin. According to the Military History Club of Remiremont, he was treated in a house in the country, and then taken by the Germans in Gerardmer. On the 29th of May, after being interrogated at the Hotel de la Poste; he was escorted by foot, led by a sergeant, Chief Feldgendarmerie of Saint Dié, to the prison of the "Goering-Kasern" (current Kléber neighborhood). In the middle of the path on the road between the Grand’Rue and the gate of the barracks, just in front of this portal and some Géromois, the helper killed the pilot prisoner with a shot of a pistol to his back. The departmental archives specify time: 14h, and the name of Feldgendarme: Major Hiss, head of department in Saint-Dié. On May 30, the body of the American pilot, Dean Post, was handed over to French authorities and civil burial took place at the communal cemetery, German authorities have forbidden any procession and only ten people could follow the hearse. The crowd congregated in the vicinity of the tomb and despite monitoring Feldgendarmerie, many flowers are laid on the coffin. The Feldgendarmerie gave the order to all move from the grave. The tomb of the aviator was covered overnight with an impressive layer of flowers, removed by the Germans in the morning, but restarted the following night. After the war, the body of Post Dean rejoined the American cemetery of Quequement in the aisle B28-30. Today, based on the locations of the fallen aircrafts, we can collect these stones, in Clefcy, the Evelines at Martimpré. 352nd Fighter Group 357th Fighter Group 364th Fighter Squadron airplanes André Clair aviators Boulevard Kelsch Dean N.

Title "In Memoriam" Section of The Seminole, 1947 Description One of the "In Memoriam" pages from the 1947 edition of The Seminole, the yearbook for the University of Florida (UF) in Gainesville, Florida. This page honors alumni of UF that sacrificed their lives in World War II. A notable individual shown on this page was Captain Aquilla A. Calhoun, Jr., a native of Panama City, Florida. Upon his graduation, Capt. Calhoun enlisted as a second lieutenant in the U.S. Army Reserves. Upon his enlistment, he entered the 92nd Field Artillery's 2nd Armored Division in Fort Benning, Georgia. His unit gained the nickname the Brave Cannons, which has stuck throughout the 92nd Field Artillery's career. With the intensification of World War II, the Allied began to execute the Omaha Beach Normandy Invasion in June of 1944. After the invasion, Capt. Calhoun made his way to Northern France, where he played a vital role in the liberation of Bresles, a commune in the Picardie region of France. Capt. Calhoun died during his service in France and is currently buried at the Epinal American Cemetery and Memorial in Dinozé, France. Calhoun is one of 85 Florida residents interned at Epinal. His death led to the creation of a tribute site and memorial in his honor in Bristles.

Calhoun, Jr. at the Epinal American Cemetery and Memorial Description The headstone of Captain Aquilla A. Calhoun, Jr., a native of Panama City, Florida. Capt. Calhoun attended the University of Florida (UF) and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts. It was upon his graduation that Capt. Calhoun enlisted as a second lieutenant in the U.S. Army Reserves. Upon his enlistment, he entered the 92nd Field Artillery's 2nd Armored Division in Fort Benning, Georgia. His unit gained the nickname the Brave Cannons, which has stuck throughout the 92nd Field Artillery's career. With the intensification of World War II, the Allied began to execute the Omaha Beach Normandy Invasion in June of 1944. After the invasion, Capt. Calhoun made his way to Northern France, where he played a vital role in the liberation of Bresles, a commune in the Picardie region of France. Capt. Calhoun died during his service in France and is currently buried at the Epinal American Cemetery and Memorial in Dinozé, France. Calhoun is one of 85 Florida residents interned at Epinal. His death led to the creation of a tribute site and memorial in his honor in Bristles.

Title Battle Groups Can't Halt 7th: French at Gap Description A newspaper article from 45th Division News, a publication for the U.S. Army's 45th Infantry Division of the 157th Infantry Regiment. The article discusses a battle for the Seventh United States Army in the Vosges mountains. According to the article, American battle groups had forced the German Army to retreat. In the south, the French Army had reached the Belfort Gap but had made little progress. The 45th Infantry Division was part of the Oklahoma Army National Guard, with its members fighting in World War II and the Korean War. The division took part in the Allied invasion of Sicily and the attack on Salerno in the Italian Campaign in 1943, followed by the Battle of Anzio and the Battle of Monte Cassino in 1944. During Operation Dragoon, the 45th Division landed in southern France in latter half of 1944. In 1945, the 45th joined other forces for the Western Allied invasion of Germany, ending the European Theatre of World War II when Germany surrendered in May.
