WWII Memorial Honor Roll Project

Class of 1971 Project

CLICK HERE TO VIEW LIST OF WWII VETERAN NAMES 

In 2001, as the Class of 1971 toured the AHHS campus, several members discussed the fact that the beautiful walnut WWII Honor Roll case was showing signs of age. Twenty years later, in discussions among several of our classmates, we discovered that few knew of the case, or what it represented.  
The Class of 1971, being children of the Greatest Generation, felt that we should step forward to honor our parents, aunts, and uncles, neighbors who served their country during those perilous times.  

Forty-one of the students honored, never returned home to their families, giving the ultimate sacrifice.  Over 800 WWII Veterans, with links to Alamo Heights, are named in the case.

The Class of 1971 initiated this project to honor students of Alamo Heights School District, who served our nation during World War II, 1941-1945. 

We invite AH Alumnae, AHISD students & faculty, and AH residents to join us in researching the stories of the honor roll veterans. (see Veteren links below for what we have so far.)

Our goals:
To honor the 800+ men and women of Alamo Heights who served during WWII
To research and spotlight those who never came home
To engage current AHHS Students to research WWII history, the training, the battles, and the missions where these veterans served, and where some lost their lives.

So far, we have learned that the original memorial case was erected in 1945.  According to the 1945 Olmos Yearbook, the HI-Y Club was responsible for maintaining the honor roll.

Donors have come forward to help underwrite the repair and refurbishment of this beautiful, hand-carved honor roll case.  We are seeking additional Donations.

Work on case was begun in August 2022, The Windmill Woodworks, LLC, owners Jerry & Allison [Daniels] Sims, were contracted to repair & replace the broken wood carvings, and clean & oil the wood case.  Allison is an AHHS 1973 graduate.   

1971 AH graduate, Gary Gates, Gates Machine & Fabrication, Inc., who happens to be a “get ‘er done” guy, has coordinated the moving parts and participants:  AHHS Faculty, JROTC Student Volunteers, Vendors contracted for goods/services, and class member volunteers. Gary coordinated the polishing of 800+ tarnished brass name tags, the fabrication & graving of 51 new replacement tags, construction of a permanent backing mount of the case for its new location.  In 2023 Gary worked with AHHS Faculty and AHHS JROTC to carefully remove the tags, and relocate the case, while the main building undergoes reconstruction; and this winter we will gather a handful of class member volunteers to re-insert the 800+ brass tags in the case.*
*Contact Toni if you wish to help with this.
Target for completion:  mid 2024 
One thought is to hold a "rededication" in 2025, 80 years after the end of WWII.  However, since the High School main building will be under construction for a couple years, we are not yet sure about the logistics. 

Thank You to the following Volunteers, Donors, and Service Providers, without whom, the project would not come to fruition:
Donors:
Gary Gates, Gates Machine & Fabrication, Inc.
Roy Herndon
Gordon Stevenson
Volunteers & Helpers:
Mr. Joseph Holzmann, AHHS Assistant Principal, has been a HUGE help to this project
AHHS JROTC
Expenses:
We contracted ($) with several companies for services or goods: fabrication of new brass tags, engraving, old wood cleaning & repair, new wood & staining, new brass hardware, design & construction of a frame backing for the new location. Windmill Woodworks, Alamo Bolt, Farmers Copper, Monarch Trophy, Alamo Plating & Metal.

We welcome $ donations to this project.  Pls contact Toni to arrange by Venmo, Zelle, or Check.  Expenses include: Time, Goods, Services for brass, metal, & wood work

WE NEED YOUR HELP:   

Please take time to read the 800+ names of the Veterans. We recognize fathers, uncles, and neighbors. Our former Administrator, Harry Orem, AH Class of '44, is listed.
Can you help us find information as to their participation in World War II? 
Can you connect us with living family members of these Veterans?
We hope to learn the following about each Veteran 
    Their connection to AHISD and City of Alamo Heights         
    AHHS student and/or graduate?         If so, what year?  
    TMI studen or graduate?      what year?
    What branch of the military?      Rank?            Where did they serve? 
    IDs of Squadrons, Infantry, Battleships, Fighter Groups, Training Missions, Bomb Groups, Divisions, Aircraft, etc. 

HELPFUL RESOURCES:  DD-214 service records, Draft Registration Card (found on Ancestry.com or FamilySearch.org); 1930, 1940, 1950 Census reports, findagrave.com ;  2021 Alamo Heights Alumni Directory (scroll down for 1925-1948 pages); search Fort Sam Houston National Cemetery
Find-a-Grave TIP: in cemetery location, enter Bexar County rather than San Antonio, for a broader reach.  Teachers and Administrators 

Would you be interested in joining our research team?  Example: research names in the 1930s & 1940s AHHS Yearbooks (most are either in the AHHS Library or in the Admin Office of the high school.)

In this way they have indeed paid tribute to our boys in the service of our country."

ERNEST M. GROOS, JR. Class of '42,  US Navy, Ensign, Fourth Officer, Navigator, LCI (Landing Craft-Infantry) in the South Pacific.  Memory from his son, Ernest III (class of '71):  LINK to the website that has the best information about the small (less than 160 foot), flat-bottomed ship my father served on during WWII in the South Pacific. He was a 20-year-old ensign on this LCI (Landing Craft-Infantry) that was converted to a mortar ship, LCI(M). Being flat-bottomed, it was able to sail in over the coral reefs that surrounded most of the South Pacific Islands they were attacking. From close-in, they would fire in explosive mortar rounds at targets radioed to them via air reconnaissance. One of his duties was being the navigator, which often had to be done zig-zag without radio signals in order to avoid Japanese submarines. At night, this required navigation by the stars, both of the northern and southern hemispheres. I still wonder at the mettle of a 21-year-old kid with that kind of responsibility and burden, but that pretty much describes all of those that served in WWII.  After the Japanese surrender, he was assigned as the navigator on a Destroyer, which seemed like a battleship compared to the boat they sailed (sometimes surfed during huge ocean storms) across the Pacific. ...  In the third picture on the web page, my dad is the skinny kid on the left.

JACK H. VANDERWEIDE  Class of '39  Capt US Army WWII in France   Grave

SAM W. VANDERWEIDE  Class of '44 US Army Engineers  Grave Memorial   Porter Loring Obituary  Legacy Obituary  "Before finishing the last semester of Alamo Heights High School, out of "patriotic fever" (after Pearl Harbor) he enlisted into the Army Engineers and found himself in New Guinea dodging Japanese bullets and bombs, while constructing MASH-like hospitals and other facilities. He was assigned as a Radio Operator/Gunner on a half-track. He fought in World War II in the Pacific from 1943 through 1946. He was a member of the 1876th Engineer Aviation Battalion and fought in New Guinea, Australia, Morotai, Netherland East Indies, the Philippines, and Japan."    He returned home to finish high school. At that time he suffered severe attacks of cerebral malaria, but recovered and enrolled at Trinity University, San Antonio, graduating with a B.S. degree in Physics. He couldn't escape the ever watchful eye of Uncle Sam, he was commissioned in 1951 in the United States Air Force and was recalled to active duty as a Special Investigations Officer USAF/OSI to serve in Hill AFB; Utah, Mountain Home AFB; Idaho, and then Washington, D.C. In 1956 and 1957 he attended the Air Electronics Officer Course at Keesler AFB, Mississippi.   In 1958 he returned to civilian status, but still with the government working to a GS-14 supervisory Electronic Engineer and Senior Staff Intelligence Officer. MORE ABOUT SAM's ongoing service to his country in his Porter Loring Obituary
