Thanks Tailgunner Joe.
In September 1918, though told they were headed to France, the soldiers in company M 339th Infantry were shipped from Camp Custer in Battle Creek, Michigan, to the bitter cold Archangel, Russia. The R.E.F (Russian Expeditionary Force), later referred to as "The Polar Bears," went to battle in a desolate, frozen land. They were left to fight eight months after World War I had ended, and became one of the most highly decorated regiments in all the war. These men will be remembered in a documentary film, "Voices of a Never Ending Dawn," which premieres this Memorial weekend in southern Michigan. Among the men honored in the movie is local Cross Village WWI veteran John G. Keller.
Just adding to the catalog, not sending a general distribution.
