My Cooter's History Blog has become about 80% World War II anyway, so I figured to start a blog specific to it, especially since we're commemorating its 70th anniversary and we are quickly losing this "Greatest Generation." The quote is taken from Pearl Harbor survivor Frank Curre, who was on the USS Tennessee that day. He died Dec. 7, 2011, seventy years to the day. His photo is below at right.

Glenn C. Underwood of Sycamore and His Brother Jay Killed in World War II
In the last post, I wrote about Glenn Underwood of Sycamore writing to his parents from Northern Ireland after his safe passage across the Atlantic Ocean.
Looking up DeKalb County, Illinois, World War II casualties, I am sad to see that Glenn C. Underwood never returned home. He was killed.
In addition, his brother Jay D. Underwood, also was killed.
