Clell Hiatt
Private Company A
#100055
Killed at Chateau Thierry near Sergy, July 30, 1918. Buried in grave No. 43-C. Map of Conde-en-brie. Son of Mr. and Mrs. A. H. Hiatt, East Peru, Iowa. Private Hiatt showed such ability and
eagerness for combat that he was assigned to the raiders, whose work was pulling night raids on
the Huns, going over into their trenches and securing information as to their plans and positions.
Here he displayed great courage and ingenuity. With the raiders, while fighting their way through
Sergy ahead of the First Battalion, he was instantly killed by shrapnel.

Bernard A. Gudell
Private Company A
#302460
Killed July 30th at Chateau Thierry. Buried in grave No. 45-A, Map of Fere-en-Tardinois. Night
patrols and raiding were the delight of Private Gudell and the occasion was rare when on of these
patrols sallied forth without him. Private Gudell was shot through the head by a machine gun
bullet dying almost instantly on that memorable morning of July 30th, when his company so
honorably distinguished themselves. A boy, a man, a soldier, beloved and reverenced by all, his
loss was keenly felt. Relative's address, Clara Pfeifer, Wauwatosa, Wisconsin.
