Indiana World War I Honor Roll

366 people from Indiana are pictured in Soldiers of the Great War, a memorial book published in 1920. The book lists 306 of them as having died in the war, and 60 as wounded in action. Here they are by hometown, each with the caption the book printed under the photograph. A few come from the book's Supplement, where the caption also names the state.

Those five codes are the book's own legend, printed at the front of each volume. Ranks are printed short too: PVT. for private, CPL. or CORP. for corporal, SGT. for sergeant, LT. for lieutenant, CAPT. for captain, MAJ. for major, WAGR. for wagoner, MECH. for mechanic, BUGL. for bugler and MUSC. for musician. A few captions carry other titles; we show every one exactly as the book printed it.
