George W. Wilkenson
Sergeant Company A
#99890
Killed October 14th, at Hill 288, Argonne Forest. Buried in Grave No. 2-39, Map of
Kreimhilde, Stellung. Son of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Wilkenson, Winterset, Iowa. Sergeant
Wilkenson was wounded July 28th and sent back to the hospital. Altho his wound still
bothered him, he returned to the regiment six weeks later. During the offensive on
October 14th he displayed remarkable heroism and courage. He charged and captured
three machine gun nests, which reduced his platoon to one-half its number. He
unhesitatingly gave his life in personally charging and capturing a fourth machine gun
nest.
