- Updating the list of the 2125 EP High School Student names who served in WWII
The names were written in cursive and volunteers are sought to help decipher some of the name spellings. Inquire and the latest typed lists will be emailed to you to edit.
Six pages of names are missing. Thus, trying to fill in the last names ending with the letters G and O. Please submit names. Or help research via looking through Crimson yearbooks. These yearbooks are on-line and at the city library.
