The Hartzogs were from early Bethlehem, Pennsylvania area. Marriage joined the Worsley family from Sweden with the Hartzogs at the turn of the twentieth century. Wieners emigrated from Germany in the mid-nineteenth century to marry into the Wussow and Blatz families of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The families documented their rise in American business and as strong members of their communities. Herbert J. Hartzog practiced law before the Supreme Court of Pennslyvania. Carl Worsley and Emil Wiener established upscale furniture manufacturing businesses in Pennslyvania and Wisconsin respectively. Their children attended prominent schools including Dartmouth, Wellesley and Pine Manor during the 1930's.\n \nThe families kept journals of their travels in Europe during 1933 just before the advent of World War II providing a last glimpse of the \"old\" Europe before the devastating events of the war. During World War II, John Paul Wiener and his young bride, Margery Anne Hartzog Wiener, were separated for two years while he went through training in Princeton, New Jersey, Miami at the Submarine Chaser School in September 1944, then to Key West and ports in California. Overseas he was aboard the USS Staff in the Pacific. They wrote to each other frequently. Most of the young ensign's letters speak to life aboard a minesweeper in the Pacific. His wife kept up a brave face as she kept the home fires burning in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Their letters are prolific and give keen insight into the events of the day on both the battlefront and home front. Postwar letters give a clear understanding of the new spirit in America as the population expanded its horizons and moved into one of the most prosperous times we have known as a Nation.","Transferred from the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience to FSU Libraries Special Collections \u0026 Archives in July 2022.","This collection contains the personal papers, journals, documents, ephemera, and correspondence of the Weiner-Hartzog families in the years before during, and just after World War II.

Giles was born on January 5, 1925 in Nashville, TN. Six months later, 'Ozzie' as his friends and family called him moved to Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, where he spent the majority of his life. ","Giles entered active duty on March 31, 1943 at Fort Hayes, Columbus, OH. Giles served as a corpsman with a medical detachment to the 66th Infantry Division and as a rifleman in Company G, 411th Infantry Regiment, 103rd Infantry Division on the US Mainland and in the European Theater (ETO). Giles served in Camp Blanding, Florida--\"in the middle of nowhere\" (4). He trained at Camp Blanding. He tells a story of being separated from his friends at Blanding and then being reunited (4-5). He discusses basic training at Camp Blanding and the weather there (5-7). \"My 1st impression of military life in Florida was heat, extreme heat (95).\" Giles went to Orlando for physicals (7). He was assigned as a corpsman with a medical detachment to the 66th Infantry Division and as a rifleman in Company G, 411th Infantry Regiment, 103rd Infantry Division on the US Mainland and in the European Theater (ETO). He was shipped overseas to Marseilles, France, in September 1944. He first saw combat at the Vosges Mountains in France. \n    Giles outlines in his letters his hopes for being in the Air Corps, and then his subsequent disappointment with the position he ends up with in the infantry. He also dealt with a number of medical conditions that often meant he was in hospital. His papers provide insight into what each of his jobs was like, as well as to his opinions of the places he visited. He was born and raised in Cuyahoga Ohio, and his descriptions of Florida, Mississippi, as well as France and Germany may have value to social historians. He also describes life in Europe after the war while awaiting transfer back to the States.","He used the G.I. Bill to complete a B.S. in Business from Ohio State University. He entered work in the insurance claims field, retiring as a Litigation Supervisor in 1987 from the Underwriters Ad justing Co. He was also elected President of The Akron Claims Association in 1972 and was a lifetime member. He was also a member of the Cuyahoga Falls Masonic Lodge 735, The American Legion Post 281, The Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 1062, and the 103rd Infantry Division of World War II Association. Giles was married for 50 years to his wife, Alice Corkie, and the couple had two daughters, Ginger Salter and Tracey Lynn. He passed away on January 18, 2003, at his home in Cuyahoga Falls.","Source:","\"Herman C. \"Ozzie\" Giles.\" Legacy.com.

Giles was born on January 5, 1925 in Nashville, TN. Six months later, 'Ozzie' as his friends and family called him moved to Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, where he spent the majority of his life. ","Giles entered active duty on March 31, 1943 at Fort Hayes, Columbus, OH. Giles served as a corpsman with a medical detachment to the 66th Infantry Division and as a rifleman in Company G, 411th Infantry Regiment, 103rd Infantry Division on the US Mainland and in the European Theater (ETO). Giles served in Camp Blanding, Florida--\"in the middle of nowhere\" (4). He trained at Camp Blanding. He tells a story of being separated from his friends at Blanding and then being reunited (4-5). He discusses basic training at Camp Blanding and the weather there (5-7). \"My 1st impression of military life in Florida was heat, extreme heat (95).\" Giles went to Orlando for physicals (7). He was assigned as a corpsman with a medical detachment to the 66th Infantry Division and as a rifleman in Company G, 411th Infantry Regiment, 103rd Infantry Division on the US Mainland and in the European Theater (ETO). He was shipped overseas to Marseilles, France, in September 1944. He first saw combat at the Vosges Mountains in France. \n    Giles outlines in his letters his hopes for being in the Air Corps, and then his subsequent disappointment with the position he ends up with in the infantry. He also dealt with a number of medical conditions that often meant he was in hospital. His papers provide insight into what each of his jobs was like, as well as to his opinions of the places he visited. He was born and raised in Cuyahoga Ohio, and his descriptions of Florida, Mississippi, as well as France and Germany may have value to social historians. He also describes life in Europe after the war while awaiting transfer back to the States.","He used the G.I. Bill to complete a B.S. in Business from Ohio State University.
