A thank you to the Manitowoc County Veterans Service Office for providing me with this list of servicemen. I found a list of Wisconsin's Gold Star Recipients. A * by the name means the Soldier, Sailor, Marine or Nurse died during the World War thus earning Wisconsin's Gold Star. This was an unofficial list, so may not contain all of the receipents.
