Private First Class Michael Fogarty, originally from Queenstown, Ireland, was born and enlisted in June 1917 weighing 215 pounds, now 180 pounds. Standing at 5 feet 10 inches, Fogarty migrated to America in 1907 for better laboring conditions. He speaks Gaelic and English and worked as a private nurse. Having received education at State Hospital in Eloise, Michigan for two years, medical officers commend his dedication during front-line engagements under fire. The photo was taken in Gullesheim, Germany.
