    Notes 
    • Paul M Fecteau enlisted in the US Army as a Private on 15 Aug 1940 in Augusta, Maine

      information (FindAGrave.com)
       Son of Cora Fecteau.
      Paul served as a Corporal, 59th Coast Artillery Regiment, U.S. Army during World War II.
      He resided in Kennebec County, Maine prior to the war.
      He enlisted in the Army on August 15, 1940, prior to the war, in Augusta, Maine. He was noted, at the time of his enlistment, as being Single, without dependents.
      Paul was declared "Missing In Action" in Corregidor in the Philippines Islands during the war.
      It is unclear, since he was discovered missing on May 10, 1942, whether he was part of the those that surrendered on May 6, 1942 or was simply discovered missing on May 10th.
      There is no record by the Japanese Army of him being a Prisoner Of War so he more than likely was killed during the final assault on Corregidor prior to the surrender. .
