Where Youth and Laughter Go: The Tahquamenon Country and World War I

Over Two Million Americans served in Europe during World War I

Many of their Stories Remain Untold

The Tahquamenon Country offered up many of its sons, fathers, and brothers to the Great War. Most of these men remain only as names inscribed on stone or as faded photographs in old albums.

However, in "Where Youth and Laughter Go," you will find the experiences of three soldiers who died struggling up Hill 212, outside Sergy, France; The story of a local Marine who was killed in the Battle of Belleau Wood; as well as the account of a school superintendent who became a bomber pilot, the unique wartime contributions of some area lumberjacks, and the tale of two young war brides who left France to live in the Upper Peninsula.

Their Stories are our history.
