The Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, War Memorial near the courthouse in Kittanning; Armstrong County native Henry M. Marshall is honored here.
Marshall's name among other Armstrong County natives who died during the nation's conflicts. Thanks to my Dad, Percy J. Marshall, for making sure this Marshall name was added to the memorial.
The Civil War panel of this War Memorial. These panels are worth a trip to Kittanning--they are surprisingly good art and represent Armstrong County war causalties from the time of the earliest Native American warfare.

Captain Richard A. Schunk (born 1945) is the son of Arthur C. Schunk and Betty L. Marshall and a grandson of Ed Marshall and Carolyn Graffius. In this photo, taken 11 February 1971 at Headquarters, 1st Cavalry Division, Phouc Vinh, Republic of Viet Nam, Dick is receiving the Bronze Star for Heroism in Ground Combat from Major General George Putnam, Commanding General of the 1st Cavalry Division. From an article appearing in the Altoona (PA) newspaper at that time: “As a result of [Schunk’s] quick rescue action, the life of one seriously wounded survivor was saved . . . [His] personal bravery and concern for his fellow soldiers were in keeping with the highest tradition of military service and reflect great credit upon himself, his unit and the United States Army.” Looking back on the event today, Dick writes, “Don't ask what happened . . . I was just young, stupid, and without a clue as to personal mortality.” And that, I’m guessing, is a hero’s perspective.
