Explore Carroll: DAYHOFF: More Medal of Honor recipients have Carroll County connections

Explore Carroll: DAYHOFF: More Medal of Honor recipients have Carroll County connections


by Kevin Dayhoff

After last week's column about 1st Lt. John Buffington, of Taneytown, was published ("Recalling Carroll's only recipient of Congressional Medal of Honor"), I was told of research suggesting there are more Medal of Honor winners who have connections to our county.


Shortly after the column appeared, I heard from readers from all over the world -- from here in Carroll County to Australia to South Carolina.


As much as I appreciated everyone's feedback and questions, perhaps the most valuable came from Laura Jowdy, an archivist from the Congressional Medal of Honor Society (www.cmohs.org.)

Further research after last week’s Eagle Archive column, “Recalling Carroll’s only recipient of Congressional Medal of Honor” was published, indicates that at there may be at least four Medal of Honor winners who have connections with Carroll County.  See this week's Eagle Archive for more details."

“Every day, through employees of the Central Maryland Chapter, local disaster action volunteers and board members here in Carroll County, the American Red Cross is there to save the day when disaster strikes,” Red Cross spokeswoman Danielle Lueking said.

Another reason to not mow the yard


Reasons to not mow the yard ...

Mower sparks fire that destroys house [multimedia] By Gina Gallucci-White News-Post Staff Originally published in the Frederick News-Post April 30, 2009

Combustible materials left too close to a warm yard tractor ignited and caused a fire that destroyed a house Wednesday afternoon, according to the Division of Fire and Rescue Services.

Deputy Fire Marshal Ed Ruck estimated damage to the house at 5702 Catoctin View Court and its contents at $400,000.

[…]

The house had to be evacuated twice because the fire compromised the structure and the floor was starting to collapse, Ruck said. Several tankers had to be called because there are no hydrants in the area.

Members of the American Red Cross were called to the scene to assist the residents, he said.

[…]

Read the entire article here Mower sparks fire that destroys house [multimedia] – and then join me in advocating that the Maryland General Assembly outlaw mowing the yard.
