Hauge Lutheran Church: World War II Service Roll

This Memorial Day, NorwegianRidge.com will honor the WWII service members from Hauge Lutheran Church; fortunately, it seems that all came home from the war. The list below has been transcribed from a framed poster in the basement of the church. The original list includes only the name and branch of service, but I have endeavored to fill in a little more information on each person by using church and military records (yet have been unable to identify a couple of them).
