Hundreds of friends and loved ones, some of them visible in this rare photo, gathered gath-ered at the Union Pacific Depot at 6:30 a.m. for an emotional send-off. The day began with reveille played by Willard Bircumshaw from the front porch of his Rossie Hill home. Later, the Park City Military Band, under the direction of Zack Oblad, played appropriate patriotic music for the occasion. The boys were honored the night before with a Grand Ball at the Rasband Dance Hall. At 7:05 a.m., the boys boarded the Pullman car amid cheers and hat-waving before the train departed for the journey to Ft. Lewis, Wash., for basic training and assignment, most likely overseas. Although WWI One began in 1914, America did not enter the conflict until President Wilson signed the formal declaration decla-ration of war on April 6, 1917. In 1918. the war ended at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month and Armistice Day was created. Although called "the war to end all wars," it didn't happen that way and the name of the commemorative commem-orative event was changed to Veterans Day. This year we will observe Veterans Day on Saturday, Nov. 11. Nine of the 1 68 Park City boys died in WWI. f.lotjnfjng yt fJ j L)i r 1)7 1 tw lJ TA.ulft n fctlWW S I ft a -.-r h wkML -wa.jspw E W ESBNr EMM Nrtff 4.1 lm I Ml 1 ni t I bcrMM n FTf ' ' vi ES3 HTniirSLAPvCEST SALE .. . .toiif . . . ,;... ....J .... . . ;ir k .
