He was XO of his Battery and received a Bronze Star w/ V. He served in 5 campaigns in Europe including the liberation of Paris. He stayed in the Reserves and left the service with the rank of Major.

The NOW Picture of Post Member Warren Eddy

Warren Eddy is back home in Edmonds after 30 years in California  and looking good for a man of 90 (plus?).  He is married with two children, six grandchildren, and one great grandchild.  As footnote, he is a past Commander of an American Legion Post in Southern California.  Thanks for the memories Warren.  Now how about a few more volunteers.
