Description The Florida-France Soldier Storiesproject seeks to tell the stories of the Florida soldiers buried in the American Battle Monuments Commission cemeteries in France. Our goal is to honor and commemorate the brave individuals who gave their lives supporting the Allied forces, liberating France, and defeating Germany in the Second World War. Simultaneously, our goal is to teach the students who participate in this research project about the history of France and Florida during World War II, about the history of individual servicemen, and about how to implement historical research methods in their work.

Calhoun in Lovely Eufaula Ceremony Description An article published in The Panama City News-Herald announcing the wedding for then-Lieutenant Aquilla A. Calhoun, Jr. and Lillian J. Luke (b. 1922). Born in Eufala, Luke attended Alabama Polytechnic Institute in Auburn and was a member of Kappa Delta National sorority. Captain 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. After their wedding in January of 1942, the Calhouns moved to Columbus, Georgia, where Capt. Calhoun joined the 92nd Field Artillery's 2nd Armored Division. Capt. Calhoun participated in the Omaha Beach Normandy Invasions and played an integral role in liberating the town of Bresles, France.
