This badge belonged to William David Cape who lived and is buried at
Concho. It may be a reunion badge, and not one he would have had
during the war. Submitted by Lola Carlile

Rama Alpha Dodson was the youngest of the Dodson girls. She
married Horace Earl Kinard of Paint Rock. They raised a family in Paint
Rock until Earl's death in 1934. Rama sold the Chevrolet Sales Co. there
and went into business for herself running a boarding house in Paint
Rock, mostly for teachers. Her three girls were still young and she made
a good living for them. When her father, John Freeman Dodson died in
1938 she also took her mother to live with her, Alice H. Cummings
Dodson. After the death of her mother, Rama took the girls and moved to
Eden where the girls had jobs. In Eden, Rama took in sewing and was a
wonderful seamstress. Rama never had an idle moment. She was always
busy sewing or cleaning or cooking. The whole family came often to her
home for Sunday dinners. She had a bright Christian outlook on life and
was loved by all. In this picture, she was a Red-Cross Nurse in El Paso
during WWI and expresses enjoyment in a letter from home.
