Zerwekh, Kenneth Title: Kenneth Zerwekh Papers and Photographs,
Quantity: 1.1 linear ft. (3 archives boxes and 1 oversize folder) of papers and 0.1 linear ft. (5 folders) of photographs.
Call Number: WVM Mss 106
Abstract: Papers and photographs of Kenneth Zerwekh (a.k.a. Zerwick), an officer in the 3546th Ordnance Medium Automotive Maintenance Company who served in Europe during World War II. The bulk of the collection consists of correspondence between Kenneth and his family during his World War II military service in Europe. Zerwekh, very conscious of Army censors, stayed away from writing specifically about troop movements and armed engagements. Instead, he focused on non-military topics like his collection of “spoils of war,” traveling and camp life. Several of Zerwekh's wartime letters include mention of General George S. Patton, the work of the First Army, and the celebrations that took place after VE Day. Also includes his military records, a unit history of the 3546th Ordnance Medium Automotive Maintenance Company, and items that Zerwekh picked up during his military service in Europe, such as two Nazi-themed postcards. Materials not directly related to the war include correspondence from Kenneth's European vacation in 1929 and his collegiate career at Georgia Tech during the 1930's, a map of Zerwekh's route through the British Isles and souvenirs from his European vacation, and some of his exams from the Georgia Institute of Technology. The photographs include many scenic shots of European locales, as well as wartime pictures of Zerwekh, both alone and with men from his company. Also included in the collection is a photograph of a Grand Army of the Republic parade in which Zerwekh's uncle, Herman Smythe, reportedly took part.
