Danskeren der fik purpurhjerte
1 Item
Description: Avisartikel fra 1936 omhandlende Peter Frederiksen samt et brev hjem til hans mor fra Frankrig den 23. januar 1919 på Røde Kors brevpapir. || Peter Frederiksen blev født den 2. januar 1896 i Herskind i Østjylland. Han udvandrede i 1913 som 17-årig til Kasson, Minnesota, i USA. Han deltog på amerikansk side i 1. Verdenskrig fra juni 1918 og frem til krigens afslutning. Han kæmpede ved Vestfronten i Frankrig, og den 2. november 1918, under et engreb på tyske stillinger, blev han såret i højre ben af fjendtlig ild. Han måtte derefter indlægges på lazaret i flere måneder. Slaget den 2. november 1918, hvor han og hans division stormede en større by, havde store tabstal til følge. Han blev for sin indsats i 1. Verdenskrig tildelt flere udmærkelser, bl.a. to guldbånd samt purpurhjertet (Purple Heart). Purpurhjertet er en amerikansk militær udmærkelse, der uddeles til dem, som er blevet skadet eller dræbt i militær tjeneste. Peter Frederiksen drev efter krigen en farm ved Kasson, blev gift og fik fire børn. I 1936 blev han indlagt på hospitalet i Rochester med blidtarmsbetændelse, som han blev opereret for. Mens han lå på hospital fik han lungebetændelse, og dette viste sig at være dødeligt. Peter Frederiksen døde som 40-årig, og fik en militær begravelse på Evergreen kirkegård i Mantorville, Minnesota.
