Whitehall High Teacher Italy Casualty
Private Edwin M. Faust, peacetime teacher of German and Latin in Whitehall High school, suffered a severe contusion of his thigh when a German delayed-type road mine exploded near Naples, Italy.
According to a letter received yesterday by his wife, the former Virginia Felker, who moved from Fullerton, their former home, to be with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. John Felker, 16 E. Ettwein St., Bethlehem, the 28-year-old Army infantryman was on a truck traveling over the road when the mine exploded.
He received his wound Sept. 26. In yesterday's letter he told his wife that he had been awarded the Purple Heart medal and had been evacuated to one of the Army's general hospitals in North Africa. He told his wife, a nurse at St. Luke's hospital, that he was improving nicely under the attention he was receiving.
Inducted into service June 12, 1942, the former school teacher, on of the late Edwin and Helen (Walbach) Faust, after training at Fort Meade, Md., and Shenango, Pa., went overseas last July. He was in North Africa and moved into Italy after the Sicilian campaign.
In a letter dated Oct. 14, and received last week by his sister, Mrs. George Follweiler, 203 Chestnut St., Fullerton, whose husband is also in service, Private Faust said that he was evacuated on a hospital ship after receiving his injury. He spoke of the good meals, including a roast turkey dinner on Sunday, recreational facilities provided and the excellent treatment he received from the Army doctors and nurses.
In peacetime Faust had been named the 1940 successor to the late Harold E. Kuhns, who was the teacher in the Whitehall High school. Born in Fullerton, he was graduated from Whitehall in 1930, received a B. A. degree from Muhlenberg in 1934, active in the German society, romance, and classical fraternities, he took graduate work at Columbia university. He had been an employee of the Mack Mfg. Co. before getting his first teaching job at Miami Beach, Fla, later returning to Allentown to work again at Mack's until called to his teaching position at Whitehall.
He has a brother in service, Private James G., now at Fort Bliss, Tex.
