He trained at Camp Hancockand was detailed for overseas service, but a short time beforehe was to sail his heart was found to be unfit for foreignwarfare and for many weeks he was detained at Camp Upton,N. Y. Finally, after many examinations and much pleading on hispart, he was transferred to the Military Police Force and sailedto France in July, 1918. The following October he was promotedto the rank of corporal in the 314th Company of Military while with the Army of Occupation he contracted pneu-monia, from which he died December 20, 1918 in Echternach,Luxembourg. As I remember Walter, his most prominent char-acteristic was that he was always ready to do the necessary duty,without asking the reason why. 38
