KEEP RECORD OF EVERY GRAVE Identification Work Carrltd Out With Thoroughness That Is Marvel of Ef ficiency—Number of Amsrlcan Dead That Have Not Been Identified Is Between 1,000 and 1.500, In Striking Contrast to Tragic Totals ef Other Countoi«* Amid the potnp and gageantry when world paid homnge to America's unkuowu soldier on Armistice Any. lit tle thought was given to the wonder ful work of the unny quartermaster corps In Identifying thousands who fell In the grout war. writes Junius B. Wood In Chicago News. The casual ties of the Amerlmu forces on land and sea were, roughly, 310.000. Out of that number th* silfDtnnt general s ofil' v records 77,183 as fatal and as occurring outside the borders of the United States. The "unknown" was one of these. The cemetertal division has 77,018 graven registered. Of these. 42.008 bodies have been transferred, all ex- cept a few hundred dlstrllmtcd to different countries In Europe, being brought tn the United Mates. There are eight official American government cemeteries. Howe'er, there are close to ,7)0 village burial plotr Ifi France, Belgium. Germany and otltgr countries fr'itn which soldier dead have not been removed. The record of the last resting place of the "unknown" before he nos brought with three of his coinrailes to Chalons-sur-Manie and selected for the nation's honor, la a carefully guard ed secret of the War department, While he probably came from one of five large American battle-front ci 'ame terles. it Is not Impossible that be came from one of the 5oO • May Have Been Marine. Figuring on the pr«>|>ortl<>n nf cas ualties In the different branches of the service, chances strongly favor the "unknown" having been a soldier. Ils might have l>een an officer, and there is a stronger [«issiblUty that he wax n marine. The tatter branch lost many In Its first, bitter fight In Bel- lean wood* nn,l more llinii one grave In that cemetery Is marked "Unknown Amorimii." Th«pi iMeotlbllltl«« are smaller that he was a bluejacket Iron) the medical corps of the murine hrl- gndr. or a soldier from some other na tion's army. The number of American dead who have not been Identified Is between 1,000 and 1,500. This la io striking contrast to the tragic totals of other countries, whose unidentified «'in run Into the hundreds of thousands, One renson for tlmt 1« that nt the time of the American participation the allied front was advancing and the dead usually were behind our own lines. Another reason Is that the A. E. F. paid more attention to this sentiment al plinse of the war. I luive frequent ly seen btirlnl parties working under fire, digging shallow grave« and care fully marking them, no that Identity would not be lost when the body was removed to a permanent temetery. Unless the gruves' registration corps hss heen singularly careless, the Iden tity of the "unknown" can he limited to a mil'll smaller field than 1,500. For every grave marked "Unknown American" n record was kept of wjiore and when the body wits found on the battle front. With such n record It would Im comparatively easy to deter mine what division. po«alhly what reg iment, was In action nt that particu lar spot at that time. Its number of unknown would be a small fraction of the total for the entire expedition. The possibility of tbe “unknown" be- Ing n straggler separated from hla uolt, however, would enter.
