Thirty-One Plymouth Men Take Pre-induction Examinations
A March contingent of thirty-one Plymouth county men left LeMars for Camp Dodge to undergo pre-induction physical examinations for military service. Several transfers altered the roster to thirty-two registrants. The Selective Service System has begun releasing names of those called for pre-induction, with most men under 25 and few fathers. The western Plymouth county group listed John R. Bruns, Eldon L Kanago, Marvin L. Baldwin, Clifford D. Allen, William L. Harvey, Floyd E. Huls, George E. Heyl, Richard P. Fenske, and Jake A. Brotz of Akron and Brunsville and surrounding towns.
