Notes for OTIS MCKINLEY ABRAMS:

Served in World War I with Company A, 307th Engineer Regiment from 12 Nov 1917 to 21 May 1919. He joined up in Waynesboro, TN and took his basic training at Camp Gordon, GA. The regiment left Camp Gordon on 8 May 1918 and traveled by train to Camp Mills, Long Island, NY. On 19 May the unit sailed first to England and then on 2 June sailed to France and landed at Le Havre. Most of the time there was spent repairing roads and building bridges. I don't think he was involved in the fighting. He became ill with malaria while there and was sent to a French hospital where he was cured. The unit left France on 15 April 1919 and Mack was honorably discharged on 21 May 1919.

After returning to Waynesboro he traveled to Kansas to work in the wheat harvest. After that he stopped in Shawnee, OK to visit relatives and was able to get a job with the Santa Fe railroad as a fireman on a switch engine. He stayed with the Santa Fe for 44 years - most of the time working 7 days a week as engineer - running a swich engine.
