Title A name given to the resource Spirit of the American Doughboy Description An account of the resource This monument depicts a World War I soldier striding forward holding a rifle at waist-height in his proper left hand with a grenade help high above his head in his proper right hand. The statue once stood on the grounds of the old Fostoria High School where it was dedicated November 11, 1927. In 1969, the Doughboy and its pedestal were moved by moving contractor Ludwig Berwick to Fountain Cemetery and placed inside a circular stone area containing flowers. Damages were repaired, the bayonet was replaced, and the Doughboy was rededicated May 30, 1969. The Doughboy received reasonable maintenance at the cemetery, but the years of exposure to the elements took their toll and a major restoration fundraising campaign was undertaken in 1995 to obtain donations of citizens and of Veteran, Fraternal Civic and other organizations. The restoration was performed under the supervision of Tom Podner, McKay Lodge Fine Arts Conservation Laboratory, Oberlin, Ohio. The sculpture was re-dedicated on November 11, 1996. One of the highlights of the restoration project was the participation of Albert Thomas, who had served in the European trenches during the war, and was Fostoria’s only surviving World War veteran. He was 100 years old at the time he attended the re-dedication. He had served at Chateau-Thierry France, near Ypres, Belgium, and in the Battle of the Argonne Forest. The inscription on the plaque on the bases reads: 1917 (Crossed flags) 1918 “LEST WE FORGET” DEDICATED TO THE SACRED MEMORY OF ALL THE BOYS OF FOSTORIA AND VICINITY WHO SERVED IN THE WORLD WAR AND TO THOSE WHO MADE THE SUPREME SACRIFICE FOR LIBERTY AND HUMANITY PRESENTED BY THE SERVICE STAR LEGION WAR MOTHERS 1927 Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource E.

For more information see, http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/. Title A name given to the resource Spirit of the American Doughboy Description An account of the resource This E. M. Viquesney Doughboy depicts a WWI soldier gallantly striding forward with a rifle held low in his proper left hand and a grenade raised high above his head in his proper right hand. This monument is the only WWI memorial one presented to an American town by a foreign government. It was a gift of the French people in recognition of the proportionately high number from Swanton who gave their lives (12 of the 250 who served). The Doughboy’s rifle was removed in 1983 after continuous vandalism. After the statue was restored in 2015 the gun was replaced. A coat of gold paint was applied at that time of original installation, but after most of it had worn away the rest of the paint was removed during restoration. The restoration took place by Georgio Gikas of Venus Bronze Works, Detroit, MI. The cannon on a base in front of the Doughboy is a captured German World War mortar that was a gift of the U. S. government prior to the Doughboy’s arrival. Two plaque inscriptions on the front of the base read: Upper: SWANTON REMEMBERS Lower: TO THE MEMORY OF THE VALIANT SONS OF SWANTON & COMMUNITY ------------------ WORLD WAR 1917-1918 ----------------- THIS MEMORIAL IS LOVINGLY DEDICATED ------------------ WE HOLD THEM IN OUR GREATFUL [sic] HEARTS WITH REVERENCE AND HONOR FOREVER * * * * * * * * * * ERECTED 1926 (While it has been known from the outset that “Grateful” was misspelled in the inscription, the people of Swanton have become used to it and would not think of correcting it after all these years.)

Viquesney Doughboy was erected in Woodville in 1927 to commemorate the fallen American servicemen of World War I. The pressed copper Doughboy looks to be in a forward stride motion with a rifle carried low in his proper left hand while he reaches high holding a grenade in his proper right hand. The plaque inscription on the front of the tall base reads: TO COMMEMORATE THOSE WHO SERVED THE UNITED STATES IN THE WORLD WAR 1917 TO 1919 ---------------------- DEDICATED TO THE CLARENCE L. NIEMAN POST NO. 455 AMERICN LEGION WOODVILLE, OHIO SEPTEMBER 5, 1927 ----------------------- ERECTED BY THE EXCHANGE CLUB AND THE CITIZENS OF WOODVILLE While the plaque shows September 5, 1927, the monument was not formally dedicated until October 16, 1927. A plaque inscription on the rear of the base reads: LEST WE FORGET (wreath) 1776 1812 1846 1861 1898 1917 A plaque on the outside wall leading to the sculpture reads: Colonel Charles L. Meyer U.S. Air Force June 01, 1964 to June 30, 1990 Flew 76 successful missions over North Vietnam and 276 total combat missions. Specialty: F-4 Fighter Pilot, Commander, Squadron Operations Officer, Director of Operations, Air Operations' Officer, Flight Training Instructor F-4 and T-38, Officer Resource Manager, Technical Instructor Decorations: Legion of Merit, Meritorious Service Medal two oak leaf clusters, Air Medal with twelve oak leaf clusters, Air Force Commendation Medal, Air Force Outstanding Unit Award with one oak leaf cluster, Combat Readiness Medal with two oak leaf clusters, National Defense Service Medal, Vietnam Service Medal with two bronze service stars, Air Force Overseas Short Tour Ribbon with five oak leaf clusters, Air Force Small Arms Expert Marksmanship Ribbon, Air Force Training Ribbon, Republic of Vietnam Gallantry Cross with palm, Republic of Vietnam Campaign Medal The original brick base was much taller than the current base and it was rebuilt under the direction of the Junior League of Woodville. A plaque on the front ledge of the new base recognizes that the sculpture and park was re-dedicated on May 31, 1971, which is when the park was renamed from Waterworks Park to Veterans' Park. The Doughboy’s left hand once broke off and was reattached in about 1983, which may have been the last time any preservative/ restorative measures were taken. The sculpture is covered in dripping tarnish and is in general bad condition. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource E. M.

Description An account of the resource Half-sized version of WWI infantryman in uniform standing at parade rest with helmet pushed back, rifle in proper left hand and knapsack and uniform coat held over proper right arm. This statue is considered unique of its kind as it varies in size and stature from Viquesney's typical design of the Doughboy. This sculpture was stolen and removed from its pedestal sometime in September of 2008. A replacement bronze sculpture was installed at the original location on November 12th of that same year. The original statue, which Army Navy Garrison 273 had purchased and installed in 1938, was kept in its damaged condition at the garrison building in Lakemore. Garrison members James Critchfield and past Commander James Richards decided to attempt to repair it. Nearly three years later, the statue was brought back to the garrison building on Main Street for a dedication ceremony after the village’s Veterans Day program.
