Brother pays tribute to late Marine
Marine Corps Birthday Ben Fogletto
Nick Clemente of Philadelphia, left, and Tun Tavern owner Monty Dahm unveil William Dahm's Marine uniform at the Tavern in Atlantic City on November 10 2013. The Tun Tavern paid tribute to William C. Dahm -- brother of owner Monty Dahm -- a decorated Staff Sergeant in the US Marine Corps who recently died from cancer, by unveiling his uniform at its annual Marine Corps Birthday Party.
Monday, November 11, 2013 By ELISA LALA, Staff Writer
Monty Dahm, a former U.S. Marine and the owner of Tun Tavern in Atlantic City, hosted a 238th Marine Corps birthday celebration at his restaurant Sunday evening.
Dahm holds the event every year, but this year it included a ceremony for his late-brother, William C. Dahm, a U.S. Marine Corps staff sergeant who died of cancer in June at age 54.
William Dahm's uniforme was unveiled to an audience of Marines. It's framed and now hangs on the wall of the restaurant.
Monty Dahm said his brother enlisted in the Marine Corps at age 18 and served his four years without going to war. But when he was in his late 40s, the staff sergeant called Monty one day and said, "Guess where I'm going? Ahmadi, Iraq. I'm going to go fight for our country."
William Dahm went to active duty in both Iraq and Afghanistan and received several war medals, Monty Dahm said. He also worked for the Pentagon on classified civilian missions.
"He fought in the war in Iraq. He fought in the war in Afghanistan, and unfortunately, he lost the biggest war," Monty Dahm said. "This is my way to honor his life, for all of us to honor his life and his service to our country."

IFIB chooses William C. Dahm as senior advisor
The Iraqi Foreign Investment Board is pleased to welcome William Dahm as its senior advisor. Dahm brings more than 20 years of experience to the IFIB, most notably as a vice president and senior vice president with several major international institutions.
Dahm recently returned from Iraq, where he helped develop an extensive economic redevelopment plan for the war-torn nation, specifically the Anbar province that includes Ramadi and Habbaniya.
“I understand the complexity of Iraq’s economic situation and the people there,” Dahm said. “The potential is enormous, and I believe Iraq’s economy can be developed as a model for the world to admire.”
The IFIB’s mission is to assemble private sector investors from around the world to help facilitate the development of Iraq. The IFIB is tasked with developing strategies to attract inward private sector investment into Iraq, mobilizing domestic capital resources for growth and innovation while marketing the business benefits of Iraq and assisting local companies in identifying joint-venture partners.

* Historians note: Perry Denson died of natural causes, probably acute Brights disease. It was first believed that his housekeeper Mrs. Decker murdered him. The poor lady spent about 6 weeks in jail until the autopsy report came back. The home was near where the large tree in the Milton "Skeet" Repsher home is now in 2015
* Historians note regarding the lot: A man supposedly dug his own grave, then shot himself. I do not know who he was, but too many know about it to be false! Glenn Bennett the long time historian of the area shared this tid bit.

Glenn Bennett reports that he was quite a colorful character. His family jokes that his photo is on the most wanted list. The story goes around that he was involved in the counterfeiting of quarters in Beaver Meadows. He used to have Clark Brotzman, go to the store and buy him chew (tobacco) and pay with those quarters. If anyone was going to get caught, it wasn’t going to be him! His partner in crime was another relative, James Culver, who died in 1922. Both got away with their crimes. A story comes down through the family that Leroy sold the recipe for the Ludens Cough drops to the Luden Company. That gave him some cash. However, the story also goes that he stole the formula from his half brother's wife. The recipe of Louanna Cobb Brown found in a recipe book belonging to Susie Bond Pickett could support this. Carol has what may be the only copy of a handwritten Ladies Aide of Beaver Meadows Cookbook with favorite recipes of the local ladies. The book is not dated. So much for this colorful character! If anyone has stories to share about him, We’d love to hear them.

Harry married second to Lois Johnson. They were the parents of four children: John, Charles, Harry and Gerald. It is not known where Lois is buried.
Harry was the son of William and Imogene Brown Herman.
Historians note: It appears that Harry was murdered, some say suicide. His decayed body was found near the Waterman cemetery in a cabin. The body showed evidence that a hot stove poker had been shoved down his throat! Suicide, I don't believe. He had money stolen from him too!

One Hundred Years Ago in Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania collected from local newspapers of 100 years ago June 06 (1901/2001)
RUSH - Friend Avis is suffering from the effects of a runaway accident, near Beaver Meadows. The harness broke, the horse ran, and he was thrown out and hurt on [the] head and shoulder. The accident occurred about 9 o'clock and he lay for 2 1/2 hours in a dazed condition; he finally recovered sufficiently to get to Mr. Huckabone's nearby, who took him in and attended to his needs. He was chilled very much and a good fire and wraps were needed; in the morning Mr. Huckabone took him home. They found the horse at the foot of Blakeslee mountain entirely stripped of harness; the carriage was entirely demolished, but the harness was attached to the running gear near where they found the horse.
