Which bears a sword Can pierce an armed man. It hurls its barbed syllables, And is mute again. But where it fell The saved will tell On patriotic day, Some epauletted brother Gave his breath away. |
Wherever roams the day, There is its noiseless onset, There is its victory! Behold the keenest marksman! The most accomplished shot! Time’s sublimest target Is a soul “forgot”! ----- Emily Dickinson |
The temporary U. S. Military Cemetery at Foy, Belgium received Unknowns who have never yet been identified. This web page lists those whose files I have and gives a summary of the information for each. The columns are:

The following table gathers the information from all Foy cross-reference identification sheets and burial rosters. I have NOT yet added these entries to the main ETO Unknowns web page, although some of them may be there via other records. Clearly, the cross-reference sheets fail to include all accounted Foy Unknowns. The main ETO Unknowns web page includes references to some of those other Foy X-numbers, sometimes with identification and sometimes without identification. Those are NOT included on this web page, since this web page includes only references in the surviving Foy-specific records. |
