Griffith, Paul (1891-1949)

Group/ Military photo, “Burial of American Soldiers in Islay, Scotland, at Kilnaughton Cemetery, February 12, 1918,” came via John M. Eador from Steve Schwartz’s site S.S. TUSCANIA - AN AMERICAN HISTORY at http://renton.50megs.com/Tuscania/index.htm Included (4th from the right, back row) is Paul Griffith, 213th AERO PURSUIT SQUADRON. Identification of Paul Griffith was confirmed by Bennie Griffith. The soldier without a hat in the back row at the extreme right is George Volz, the original owner of the photograph. The ship "Tuscania" was torpedoed and sunk by a German U-boat in the North Channel Sea off the Island of Islay, Scotland, February 5, 1918. Islay is in the Inner Hebrides.
