SGT (Join to see), my wife’s great, grandfather, Joseph Inagatius Sindelar, served in the Spanish-American war. He first served in the 5th Ohio Volunteer Infantry Regiment as a private on the regimental staff. They never left the United States.

He then served as a corporal in the 32nd Infantry [regiment] (United States Volunteers) in the Philippines. He was also in the regimental band and played the euphonium.

Sindelar is shown at left in the photo. On the wall behind him, you can see his euphonium, a bayonet, and his weapon which I think is a Model 1896 Krag-Jorgensen carbine. We kept his footlocker for years until my wife gave it to her nephew.
