Ira I. Boggs (1895 - 1983), a Veteran of World War I, was a West Virginia Mountaineer as rugged as the mountains in which he lived most of his life. He survived by practicing his strong Christian Faith, toughened by hard work while growing up in a large family sustained only by the fat of the land and the sweat of the brow. His machine gun battalion was alternately labeled "Pershings Pets" and the "Sight Seeing Battalion" because they followed behind the main front and traveled extensively
