My Grandparents, Caroll LaGrand Smith and Ruby Elizabeth Nielsen Smith

Carroll LaGrand Smith and Ruby Elizabeth Nielsen Smith married August 19, 1941 in Idaho Falls, Bonneville Idaho


Around 1945 and during World War II, Carroll LaGrand Smith was drafted to the Army in Fort Douglas Utah and was trained and stationed in Texas during his service he left the Army to join the Air Force. Because of a leg injury during maneuvers he was unable to be shipped out with his company to fight in the war. This injury probably saved his life. His whole company was killed in a attack shortly after their deployment. Carroll was called an told that he was the only remaining survivor of his company.



December 1977
This picture reminds me of when Grandpa purchased his toupee, or as we knew it his hair hat. For some reason it bothered him that he was going bald. I hated his hair hat and remember having Monty help me hide it all the time or I would remind grandpa that he should take his hat off in the house and that the rule is for hair hats too. Grandpa would chuckle and say love my paperweight (my nickname).
