Martin D. Keenan is listed under privates on the 1917 Roster from Camp McClellan Anniston, Alabama which would make him the person named “Marty”, short or slang for “Martin” Keenan, who Henry Reitsma mentions in his letter home printed in the
Evening Record dated August 7, 1918, who he met while walking in France.
