S/SGT WILLIAM HOWARD HANVEY
Shot by a person whose identity is unknown, Staff Sgt. William H. Hanvey, of Brunswick, was instantly killed December 12 on the outskirts of Munich, Germany, where he was stationed with occupation forces, according to a letter received from his commanding officer, Major Edward D. Foote, of the 494th Bombardment Squadron, Army Air Corps.

The letter was received recently by his mother, Mrs. Grace Harmon, Brunswick, and confirmed a telegram received sometime ago that Sgt. Hanvey was dead. It said, "he was shot while returning to camp, from pass, from a small town on the outskirts of Munich."

Sgt. Hanvey, a native of Brunswick, graduated from Brunswick High School in 1938 and worked in Washington for a time. He was employed as a brakeman on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad when he entered service in February 1943. After basic training, he went overseas in November 1943, and was in the French and German campaigns of World War II with the air forces. He went to Munich with occupation forces after the war ended. An investigation of his death is being made, Major Foote reported in the letter. The officer said Sgt. Hanvey was buried in an American cemetery with full military honors. Besides his mother, he is survived by a sister, Mrs. Margaret Hanvey Chick, also of Brunswick.
