Roster of the U.S. Army 53rd Spruce Squadron of the First World War (Sorted by Last Name)

Cover page for roster of 53rd Spruce Squadron



These names were extracted from a scan of a book published for the 53rd Spruce Squadron at the end of the First World War. The owner of an original copy of the book was kind enough to create page scans of this souvenir book, printed for the unit. The book not only has a roster, but includes a number of photographs of personnel and their working environment in Enumclaw, Washington.

The listing here is sorted by last name for easier searching and viewing. There is a separate web page that lists the members of the 53rd Spruce Squadron, grouped by Unit subgroup, such as Medical, Transportation, etc.

I note the name of Private Morris Pittard in the listing. His family had previously sent me photos and information about him, which was published on my website.
