Three years later, Paulien died giving birth to twins, only one of whom, their daughter Marie, survived.
After a life resolutely dedicated to his work, God, and the rearing of his daughter, Emile was called-up on August 13, 1914, just a few days after the declaration of war. While fighting on the Western front, he became a prisoner of war after his first battle.
Freddie:
Freddie was born to a Creole family in La Place, Louisiana on February 27, 1882.
In 1912, he began a secret courtship with Margaret, a young white women and daughter of a prominent steamship magnate. He asked her hand in marriage one year later and the couple decided in the spring of 1914 to get on a cargo ship and head to La Rochelle, France, where they could be married. The couple visited Paris and toured the French countryside until the war broke out.
Tragically affected by the war, Freddie enlisted with the French Foreign Legion, seeking revenge against the German Regiment which stole from him these moments of happiness
Karl:
Karl was born on May 6, 1896 in a small village in Germany near Strasbourg where his father served as a Lutheran pastor.
By all accounts, Karl’s home was cold and conservative. He was educated as a youth, but having neither the money nor the inclination to go to college, Karl left home at the age of sixteen, finding work in factories and on the odd farm in Belgium and France.
One year later, at a village farm belonging to Emile near St. Mihiel, France, Karl decided remain behind to work as a farmhand. It was here that he fell in love with Marie, Emile’s daughter. From this love a baby was born just as the war was starting and Karl was asked to leave France.
Anna:
Anna was born in the Belgian city of Ieper (more commonly known by its French name “Ypres”) on December 26, 1891, into an aristocratic family. Her father, Paul, was a highly respected pioneer in engineering who sent her to Paris in the spring of 1914 to complete her studies.
When conflict broke out the following summer, Anna quit school to help the war effort by working in a munitions factory, but left Paris immediately after discovering that her father had been forced into service by the German army after the occupation of Ypres.
Selfless and ready to shun her life of entitlement to help serve the less fortunate, Anna left Paris on September 6, 1914, during a famous moment in WW1 history: the Battle of the Marne.
Walt:
A Doberman Pincher, was raised in a German military kennel and trained to become a Dog Medic in the German Army. Along with the 30,000 other dogs who also served during World War 1, some used as watch dogs and others as letter carriers, Walt is loyal and always ready to serve.
Separated from his German owner at the start of the war, he will end up playing a key role in the lives of our Valiant Hearts.
