Menzo Widel Killed In Action Maquoketa Excelsior-Record, Maquoketa, Iowa, October 18, 1918 Private Menzo Widel Killed in Action Friday a telegram informed Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Currie that their nephew, Private Menzo Widel was killed in action, September 17th while serving in Company I, 358th Infantry. Menzo went into the Army last April at Camp Dodge. He was soon sent to a Texas camp where in about five weeks he left for the east and crossed the ocean. He was very anxious to serve his country as soon and as best he could. So we mourn one more young life who has given all for his country.
