Hiawatha Doughboy

This statue was erected in Hiawatha, Utah by the Henry Holdsworth Post # 15 of the American Legion May 1922, to honor five men from Hiawatha who died in World War I. In June 1948 eight names were added for those killed in World War II. In 1989 through the efforts and sole expense of American Legion Price Post #3, this statue was graciously donated to Price City by the mayor and town council of Hiawatha, Utah.

This historic marker is located in the plaza between the Coal Miners’ Memorial, the library, and the Prehistoric Museum at approximately 139 East Main Street in Price, Utah.

CONGRESSIONAL MEDAL OF HONOR
to
Lt. (J.G.) Wm. E. Hall, U.S.N.
At risk of his life, May 7, 1942, dive bombed and helped sink enemy carrier Shoho in Coral Sea. May 8, 1942 on anti-torpedo patrol, destroyed three enemy planes. Though badly wounded, he landed his damaged “Dauntless” on USS Lexington. His indomitable and aggressive spirit and his will to come through at all costs against tremendous odds, with utter disregard for his personal safety, is attested by his conduct on this occasion.
Entered service from Hiawatha, Utah.
