Died at Field Hospital No. 165, October 17, 1918. Son of Mr. and Mrs. W. F. Brandt,
Postville, Iowa. One of Company E's best soldiers. He always volunteered for the most
dangerous missions. The final act of his life was of such daring that his colonel
recommended he be given the Medal of Honor. He was awarded the D. S. C. He
volunteered to act as guide to a position of security in the rear for his company. This was
under heavy shell fire and he with four others were seriously wounded. After being
placed on a stretcher and scarcely able to speak, he continued to direct the route.
