Draft record for Donald J. Godwin issued by the Compton, VA Selective
Service Board. Donald enlisted
at Los Angeles, CA on 3 February 1943 and was assigned to Company F,
508th PIR. Remarkably, no
Morning Report records appear for Donald other than when he was listed
as killed in action in Holland on 1 October 1944. Similarly, no
newspaper accounts of his service or interment have been found either.
His military decorations include the
Purple Heart and Good Conduct Medal. |
