DRENG H. ROISLAND was the son of Julia and Halvor Roisland and was born on June 25,
1893. He responded to the call of his country on May 24, 1918, serving first at Camp
Lewis, Washington, where he was assigned to Co. 7, 166th Depot Brigade. From there
he was transferred to Camp Kearney, California and assigned to Co. H, 157th
