Grave marker for Sgt Lawrence V. Nelson in Plot: S02-B05-L4 of the Fairview Cemetery, (Stanley Mountrail County), North Dakota.

Although his enlistment records shows that he signed up in Boston, Mass., on Sept 16, 1942, it also states that he was a native of North Dakota explaining why 'Massachusetts' appears on his head stone but his burial place is in North Dakota.

Sgt Nelson was killed in action on Jan 30, 1945.  He was awarded the Purple Heart.
