<i class="material-icons" data-template="memories-icon">stars</i><br/><strong>In Honor Of</strong><br />Ross McGinnis, Army<br/>Posted by: Noreen Shirey<br/><div class='remember-wall-long-description'> This Memorial Day. We honor those who died while serving the USA. Ross McGinnis comes quickly to my mind. Clarion County can never forget, as we tragically lost a hero. Using the word "hero" just doesn't seem adequate to describe this young man, in the prime of his life, and his sacrifice that day to save his fellow soldiers. Ross was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor for his courage and valor. The highest honor in our military.

Major John S. Nimmon, of Lancaster county, and Samuel R. Strattan, of Clarion county, led the first squadron of cavalry, which were the first troops in sight at Appomattox Court House on the day of the surrender of the Confederate army under General R.E. Lee, April 9, 1865. And it is worthy of note, that at Appomattox, a Clarion county boy, Lieutenant James H. Clover, in charge of the commissary department was the first man on the field with his wagons, and distributed twenty-five thousand rations to the hungry and defeated Confederates. "Jim," as he was familiarly called by his comrades, received great praise for this act.</div><a class='btn btn-primary btn-sm mt-2 remember-wall-toggle-long-description' onclick='initRememberWallToggleLongDescriptionBtn(this)'>Learn more</a> S.R.

<i class="material-icons" data-template="memories-icon">stars</i><br/><strong>In Memory Of</strong><br />Rick Weaver, Navy<br/>Posted by: Noreen Shirey<br/><div class='remember-wall-long-description'> This year marks the 35th anniversary of the attack on the USS Stark. Clarion Hometown Rick was able to help many of his shipmates to safety before he died of his wounds. The Stark was fired upon by an Iraqi aircraft. The first missile struck the port side of the ship near the bridge. Although it failed to detonate, rocket fuel ignited and caused a large fire. The second missile also struck the port side, leaving a 10 by 15 ft hole. Standard Missile defense went out and Captain Brindel could not order his men to return fire. A total of 37 crew were killed in the attack, 29 from the initial explosion and fire, including two lost at sea. Eight later died from their injuries. Twenty-one others survived their wounds. I know have his Dad speak at my WAA ceremony.</div><a class='btn btn-primary btn-sm mt-2 remember-wall-toggle-long-description' onclick='initRememberWallToggleLongDescriptionBtn(this)'>Learn more</a> Rick Weaver, Navy
