Re: Nomination of First Lieutenant George L. Seeds, U.S. Army Air Forces to be Added to the Killed in Action Memorial at Dublin Cemetery

Background

First lieutenant George L. Seeds was killed in action (KIA) piloting an over France on Christmas Day 1944. His remains are buried in section 1A of the Dublin Cemetery next to those of his brother, U.S. Army Technical Sergeant Robert C. Seeds. Robert1 an infantryman, was killed in action near Florence, Italy just months prior, on September 12, 1944.

Prior to the construction of the City's KIA Memorial in 2013, the National Information Company (NICOM), a research firm specializing in military records, was engaged to identify names of persons from Dublin or Washington Township who may qualify for inclusion on the wall. Sixteen names were initially identified as "confirmed" and inscribed on wall, including Robert C. Seeds whom NICOM identified as a Washington Township resident. Robert's brother, George L Seeds was included on this list as "probable/' but his name was not included on the Memorial. All documentation researched by staff to date indicates a consistent affiliation to Dublin/Washington Township for both brothers.

Janet Seeds, the brothers' surviving niece, brought the disparity to staff's attention in June of this year. In accordance with Section IV of the adopted Inclusion Policy for KIA Recognition, Ms. Seeds and her family requested the name of George L Seeds be added to the KIA MemoriaL

Recommendation

Based on City Council's approval of Robert Seeds name to be included on the Memorial in 2013; the eligibility criteria of both brothers is consistent; and the remains of both are buried in the Dublin Cemetery, staff recommends George L. Seeds be added to the KIA Memorial in accordance with Section IV of the Inclusion Policy for KIA Recognition (attached). you have any questions related to this matter, please feel free to contact Alex Rozanski or Matt Earman directly.

Re: Nomination for inclusion of George L. Seeds on Dublin Cemetery's Killed in Action Memorial

To whom it may concern:

We, the nieces and nephew of U.S. Army Technical Sergeant Robert C. Seeds and U. S. Army Air Force pt Lieutenant George L. Seeds, respectfully request that George Seeds's name be added to the Dublin Cemetery's Killed in Action Memorial. Both brothers were killed in action in 1944 during World War II. Robert's name is currently on the memorial but George's name was omitted.

Attached are the following documents: • Newspaper/newsletter clippings that document that Robert and George were

killed in action. • Columbus Dispatch article dated 19 February 1945 that documents that the

brothers were killed in action. • The Ohio State University MONTHLY newsletter, undated, second PDF page

numbered 12 and fourth PDF page numbered 37; reports include names, death dates, and circumstances of their deaths.

• Letter dated 16 February 1945 from Colonel Wm. F. Pearson to U. S. Representative John M. Vorys which documents the death of the brothers.

• Letter dated 20 February 1945 from U. S. Representative John M. Vorys to Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Seeds (parents of Robert and George), which discusses a discharge for their sole surviving third son, Richard.

• Request for Transfer letter dated 20 February 1945 from Richard F. Seeds (our father) to the Commanding General, which states that Richard's two brothers were killed in action in the European Theatre.

If you have questions or need additional information, please contact Janet or Amy Seeds; contact information below. Thank you for your consideration.

408 GOLD STARS Triple World Wor I

The University's honor roll of dead in World War II mounted to a total of 408 last month - more than three times the total of Ohio Staters (135) who gave their lives in the first World \Vu.

For the second consecutive month, ad­ditional deaths of sons of the University were reported at the ratt' of more than one a day. It was the second darkest month for the University and the Alumni Association as a total of 33 new war dead were rtported to the \V ar Records Division.

Among the new dead was Lt. Vernon L. Zieske, 25, BSc l'om'41, pilot of a P-47 Thunderbolt, killed in action over Belgium. His brother, Lt. Clarence E. (Bud) Zieske, also a University gradu­ate, gave his lifr' in aerial combat last August. The Zieske family, of Geneva, 0., was the third Univrrsitr family to lose two sons in combat. (See cuts of the two late Seeds brothers, sons of Mr. and Mrs. Clarence G. SN~ds.-Ed.)

Jim Dennis Killed. Another espe­cially hard blow was tht' death of Lt. James W. (Jim) Dennis, 28, BSc Com '37, of Ashley, 0., killed in the crash of a bomber in Alabama. He was one of the most handsome, popular young men to graduate from the University in recent years.

Of the 33 new war dead, 23 gave their lives in action, nine were killed in plane crashes, and one died of a cerebral hemorrhage. Four-teen gave their lives in ground fighting in Germany, France

INCLUSION POLICY FOR KIA RECOGNITION

Amended February 2013

I. Background

Attachment A

Establishing a definition of "Killed in Action (KIA)" and the necessary eligibility requirements to be included in the KIA memorial are critical to the overall thoroughness of the memorial.

After further review of multiple eligibility criteria for several different memorials, it is recommended that the City of Dublin adopts a definition for "Killed in Action (KIA)" while also establishing a set of criteria to be eligible for inclusion in the KIA memorial.

If the inclusion criterion is met, the individual has the opportunity to be buried on the grounds of the KIA memorial on a first come, first serve basis. The burial spots are in the form of 3 vacant grave sites along with the ability to bury cremains under the basalt pavers in the plaza area of the memorial.

II. Definition Killed in Action (KIA) can be defined as a casualty classification generally used by militaries to describe the deaths of their own forces at the hands of hostile forces. The United States Department of Defense says that those declared KIA need not have fired their weapons, but have been killed due to hostile attack.

III. Inclusion Criteria In order for a Nominee to be included in the KIA Memorial, the Nominee must meet Q.!l the following criteria:

A.) Killed in Action (KIA) as determined by the military. A certified Report of Incident, which is issued for all KIA by the military, must be submitted. If a certified Report of Incident is not available, then other records listed below may be considered.

a. Telegram/letter

b. Newspaper article

c. Death Certificate

d. History Book

e. Obituary from newspaper, Internet

f. Department of Defense data

g. Internet or print records from museums, libraries, military, church organizations (Such as the National Personnel Records Center and the Department of Defense).

B.) Died during a period of action/invasion/conflict. This includes the following, but is not limited to: World War I, World War II, Korea, Vietnam, Desert Storm, Enduring Freedom, Desert Shield, Somalia, Granada, Operation Just Cause, and Operation Iraqi Freedom. Friendly fire is recognized as KIA.

#5

Attachment A

C.) A certified Home of Record, birth certificate or proof of residence must list Dublin, Ohio. This includes the community of Washington Township and the former Village of Dublin, Ohio. Exception may be made if the Nominee attended Dublin City Schools.

Proof of Dublin Residency

A copy of at least one of the following is required to prove that the Nominee lived in Dublin.

a. Birth Certificate

b. Newspaper of Birth Announcement

c. Hospital Records

d. Ohio Drivers License

e. Certified Home of Record/enlistment paperwork

f. Dublin private or public school records/identification

g. City records

h. School yearbooks, etc.

IV. Nomination Process

Nominations for inclusion may be submitted to Dublin City Council through the City Clerk's Office. City Council will consider requests for inclusion at any time. Names of individuals approved for inclusion in the memorial will be engraved approximately 30 days prior to Memorial Day and 30 days prior to Veterans Day.

V. Determination of Dublin City Council

If the eligibility criteria are not met, Dublin City Council may, in its sole judgment, select to add additional individual names to the memorial. Additionally, individuals not meeting the criteria are eligible for memorial stones at the Grounds of Remembrance.
