Capt. Cyrus Moore III was commander of the Athens boys

And he got them together, in uniform, for the dedication of a plaque in 2018 at the Athens Armory, at the top of Court Street. When he's not winning World War I, he's an expert at the Southeast Ohio History Center.

In the old pictures they look somber . . .

. . . but these guys were perfectly cheerful -- I think it's the sepia tone that made them look oh so serious way back when.

Looks ancient, doesn't it . . .

. . . but the picture was made 19 May 2018.

There were nurses in World War I, too.
