United Daughters of the Confederacy holds 118th convention and Military Service Awards The Virginia Division of the United Daughters of the Confederacy (UDC) held their 118th Annual Convention at the Dulles Marriott in Reston, Virginia on Oct. 3-6. In attendance were local residents John Settle Short of Dahlgren and Allen Ingraham of Montross and family members. King George Chapter 1616 sponsored these gentlemen as they were presented the Cross of Military Service for their service in World War II. The Cross of Military Service is the highest award which is given by the UDC. Last year, the Chapter sponsored Elmer Morris at the National Convention in Richmond, VA for the same honor. Allen (Allie) Ingraham was born in

Westmoreland County, Virginia. He received the Purple Heart for being wounded in action, Prisoner of War Medal, Good Conduct Medal, World War II Victory Medal, Army Occupation Medal, EuropeanAfrican-Middle Eastern Campaign Medal, Bronze Star, Combat Infantryman Badge, Sharpshooter Badge with Rifle Bar, Belgian Fourragere. Mr. Ingraham fought in the Battle of the Bulge in December 1944 and was wounded and captured by the Germans. He was taken as a Prisoner of War for 120 days to the POW camp known as Stalag IV-B, which was located in the Town of Muhlberg, Germany. John (Jack) Settle Short was born in

Richmond County, Virginia and now lives in Dahlgren. Mr. Short served three years in the US Army where he was a warehouseman at Erding Air Force Base 43rd Air Depot and as a prison guard for 10 months at Nuremberg during the war crimes trials. Â He received the Army Occupation Medal (Germany) and the WWII Victory Ribbon. He also served eight years in the National Guard. On November 8, the Chapter will hold its annual Military Awards Ceremony at the Mary Washington University, Dahlgren, at 6:30 p.m. on November 8. Come to meet these gentlemen and to attend this ceremony honoring other local residents who have served our Country.
