Don J. Killen

Private Company A

#10018

        Died in Field Hospital No. 168th, September 14, 1919 (sic). Son of Mrs. Effie Killen, Carlisle, Iowa. Private Killen was fatally wounded in the St. Mihiel attack while defending his post. He was taken to the hospital where he died soon after. Before the regiment sailed for France, he was numbered among the best in the company. At Lorraine he took part in all raids and patrols sent out by the company, doing this in addition to his other duties. It would be hard to over estimate his worth for the gallant part he played during the dark days when the fate of the world was hung in the balance.
