WWI Pvt. J. H. Mondy

"Good Morning, Linda, I have been persevering with my research on those American who served in Canadian forces in the 1st World War. AND... in particular the soldier named Mondy shown on my list as coming from Alva, Oklahoma. I have forwarded the email I had from Mr. Charles Cook who responded to me due to you being so kind circulating information.

I have not been successful in any further information that may be found regarding this particular soldier, however, I have received today from the Canadian Government a copy from the Canadian Book of Remembrance this page shows Pvt. Mondy's name entered upon it, a Memorial Scroll, and a letter of gratitude. There is also Pvt Mondy's Attestation Papers (front) and back the dots are the original ink spots. All I have attached for your information.

I believe Mr. Charles Cook would care to have these original documents, if you would care to let me know your postal address I will forward them on to you. May I be so bold as to suggest that this may qualify for a mention in your magazine outlining that if anyone had family members who served in the Canadian forces of WW1 they could apply for these same items as a treasured reminder to their family member. At this moment in time I am aware of a similar soldier who is buried in White Rose cemetery, Bartlesville, Oklahoma. I am more than grateful for your help and interest." -- S. J. Clark
