Hamilton Coolidge World War I Collection

Hamilton Coolidge World War I Collection

The Hamilton Coolidge World War I Collection contains materials related to the wartime experience of Hamilton Coolidge, a fighter ace who served with the 94th Aero Squadron and who was killed in action. Most of the collection contains official military documents related to Captain Coolidge and his squadron, such as memos and orders from Headquarters and his personnel record.

The collection also contains some photographs, a plane manual, and awards and certificates granted to Captain Coolidge. Though a published volume of his correspondence is included with this collection, only one telegram (from the Coolidge family) and one letter (from Douglas Campbell) can be found in this collection. The location of the remainder of Coolidge's correspondence, if it still exists, is unknown.

Please note that some of the items contain graphic images of wartime casualties.

Please note that materials on TMOF: Digital Collections are presented as historical objects and are unaltered and uncensored. See our Disclaimers and Policies page for more information.
