The
Burke [Illustration: {American Legion seal}] Kelly
Post
That spirit of dominant Americanism with which the war was fought seems
in these times of peace to be best reflected by the American Legion.
Appreciating this, those members of Company B, 307th Infantry, who
regarded with favor the idea of a post-bellum organization applied to
the American Legion for a charter. One was granted and they were
admitted as the Burke-Kelly Post No. 172.
The name was selected in honor of the memory of two of their comrades:
Sergeant Frank W. Burke, killed by a high explosive shell on the line of
the Vesle, August 23d, 1918, and Corporal John E. Kelly, killed by a
high explosive shell during the battle of Merval, September 8th, 1918.
This publication of the History of Company B was made possible by the
members of the Burke-Kelly Post under the following officers:
_President_
WILLIAM F. HOWARD
_Vice-Presidents_
JOHN A. ROSS
ARTHUR J. HAMBLEN
ALFRED HELLER
_Secretary_
A. JAMES DIMAGGIO
_Treasurer_
THOMAS F. TWYFORD
