2. Francis W. Moan, 229 Auburn Street, Auberndale, Massachusetts
3. Stanley A. Slusarczyk, 248 Pringle, East Carnegie, Pennsylvania
4. Cecil J. Smith, Nemaha, Iowa
5. Theodore G. Tatsios, 122 Dummer Street, Lowel, Massachusetts

Four of these men were killed in action: Thomas S. Mackie, Stanley A. Slusarczyk, Cecil J. Smith, and Rudolph J. Zebora. One of these men, Vitold A. Zalneraitis, became a prisoner of war.
