(Following this list appears a numerically arranged list of names and addresses of the persons given by the soldier as those to be notified in case of emergency. Corresponding numerals precede the name of the soldier and the name of the person to be notified.
In many cases the relatives and friends of deceased soldiers have been unable to obtain reliable information relative to the circumstances surrounding the death of those dear to them. It is hoped that the publication of the list of relatives and friends will prompt the "buddies" of those who have "gone West" to write to the bereaved relatives and friends, giving them all information possible.)
