McCarty of the Sixth Service Command in the Federal Building on October 18. Sergeant Hyde was a former Strathmoor resident and student at Cooley High School. He previously had been awarded a Purple Heart at Bastogne and another Purple Heart posthumously. He was killed in action on March 2, presumably at Trier, Germany.
