A salute to some veterans in the Halverson family tree!

Montana Homesteader Heritage (Jeanne Halverson Joscelyn) would like to acknowledge some of the veterans in our Halverson family tree on this Veterans Day 2019. 

As I'm just getting to know who is exactly in the Halverson family tree as a result of Ancestry DNA and my cousin Carol Damlos from Chicago who wrote to me a couple of years ago :).  mhh doesn't know all of the veterans in our family so apologies for any veterans not mentioned here. 

The veteran I know about the most is my great-uncle Ed Halverson from Chicago. Ed is the brother of George Henry Halverson, my great-grandfather on my father's side. If mhh remembers correctly Ed served in WW11.

Also, mhh would like to acknowledge our second cousin who died in WW11, Robert Sogge (I'm not sure if I have the correct Sogge name). He is the cousin of my grandfather, Harold and the second cousin of my father, George Ted Halverson.

mmh is quite sure there are names I haven't mentioned and apologize again for this oversight.

Again, mmh salutes our veterans in the Halverson ancestry.
