Joseph Buckler:

Joseph Büchler priplával loďou do USA zo svojou matkou v marci roku 1890. He ran a cigar making business in Bronx, New York. When he registred for the draft in 1917-1918, he gave his address as 941 Rogers Place, Bronx, New York, and his occupation as a cigar maker for Solomon Brothers. His birthdate, however, was wildly inaccurate: 20 December 1889. It is unclear why (or how) a birthdate over 10 years off was provided. In 1910, Joseph and his widowed father were living in the household of his brother, Julius, in Bronx, New York. Subsequent to that, he is seen in the following census records:

Medaila Purpurové srdce, ktorou bol posmrtne dekorovaný v čase II. Svetovej vojny námorník prvej triedy 6103225 (S1C) Robert Henry Büchler, nalodený na krížniku triedy Brooklyn USS Savannah, CL-42. Bol zabitý dňa 11.9.1943, v akcii ktorá podporovala inváziu s cieľom Salerno, Taliansko. Narodil sa dňa 2. septembra 1918. Narukoval do služby dňa 9. januára 1942 z Chicaga, Illinois.

Po predchádzajúcom základnom výcviku, sa námorník Büchler pripojil k posádke USS Savannah dňa 25. augusta 1942, ktorá podporovala inváziu do severnej Afriky a na Sicíliu.

Dňa 11. septembra 1943, S1C Büchler s posádkou ľahkého krížnika USS Savannah podporoval inváziu spojeneckých na Salerno, Taliansko, keď nemecká rádiom-riadená bomba zasiahla loď. Bola shodená nemeckým dvojmotorovým bombardérom Dornier od slnka, preto strelci krížnika ho neboli schopní zasiahnuť. Prerazila pancier delovej veže č.3 aj palubu lode medzi del. vežami a zabila 197 námorníkov. Napriek škodám krížnik USS Savannah zotrval na pozícii a pokračoval v podpore invázie.
