Notes for William Keith Grimes:

William Keith Grimes was born in Elm Grove near Wheeling, West Virginia on August 28, 1925. His father worked in a large city dairy for most of his life after coming to Wheeling from Jacktown, Pennsylvania. His ancestors are of North Irish ancestry and were Protestant Christians. He attended three grade schools in Wheeling and later attended Wheeling High School. He graduated from Wheeling High School in May of 1944; He had been drafted and was on active duty at Camp Blanding Florida at the time of his graduation. While William was attending high school, he enjoyed such classes as wood shop and also printing in which he specialized for three years. He was an active member of the high school band from the middle of his time in the eighth grade and through-out all of his high school years. He had even enjoyed the privilege of playing in the Wheeling Steel Corporation's "Musical Steelmakers' Orchestra" before being placed on active duty with the Army. While William was an Army Infantryman, he had the pleasure of sailing to Europe on the il de France; at that time, the third largest ocean liner in service. After he arrived in Europe, he spent five months with the United States Eighth Infantry, a regiment of the Fourth Infantry Division, as an infantry scout. After the Battle of the Bulge, he was hospitalized in England and later sent to Camp Butner General Hospital in North Carolina. From there, he was discharged from the Army and he spent two years at working and attempting to go to school at Southern Methodist University in Dallas Texas.

In September, 1947, he returned to active duty with the United States Army; he was sent to Europe again where he was a member of the Army of Occupation. From 1948 to 1952 he served in four different Army bands in the European area. His last two years were spent in Berlin. While stationed in Berlin, He enjoyed the privilege of hearing The Berliner Philharmonic Orchestra, Radio RIAS Symphony, and the original post war tour of Marion Anderson. As a member of the 298th Army Band in Berlin, he also had the opportunity to attend the USAREUR Army band school at Dachau, just north of Munich. While he was a student there, he studied with Professor Doctor Hans Sachsee who was the head German music teacher at the school. After leaving Berlin, William visited his sister in Dallas Texas and then spent the summer of 1952 at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri. In the fall of 1952, he was sent back to Germany and was assigned to the new Corps area band for V Corps. This was the 84th Army Band. This band was stationed on the East German border area with the Armored Cavalry. The Armored Cavalry is the reconnaissance for the United States Seventh Army's V Corps. They have always been called the Border Belles!

While stationed with the 84th Army Band, it was located in a city named Fulda, Hessen; this city is famous for its Baroque architecture. It is also the seat of a Catholic Bishop. The young German fellow that then sang with his Chapel choir is Otto Carl Hartmann, today, one of Germany's best known opera tenors. He works at Radio Frankfurt.

Another very interesting personality that he had the privilege of meeting while being stationed in Fulda was a lovely table tennis champion; She had a fantastic fore hand slam and just as fantastic back hand slam. She also did beautiful and lovely needle-point with those hands. So he married her. She made him the proud father of two sons and proved that talented good fore hand and back hand slams makes a champ in other ways. His two sons found that is the trick of the champ in that you don't know which one is coming, the fore or the back. The first place in the United States that he brought his new wife was to Fort Lee, Virginia. To her, today, this is her home.

In April of 1964, he was again sent to Germany, Stuttgart, to be the First Sergeant of the famous (7 steps to hell) Seventh Army Band. While there, the band went to southern France to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Seventh Army World War II landings.

After leaving Stuttgart, he attended the advanced course (F-3) for senior NCO's at the School of Music at the Amphibious Base in Norfolk (Little Creek). From the school of Music, he went to Fort Bragg as a detachment first sergeant. From Fort Bragg, he went to Vietnam, to the 25th Infantry Division and the Tropic Lightning Band. He was the bands first sergeant and enlisted band leader for 1969 and 1970. In late 1970 he was sent one year at Fort Belvoir.

From Fort Belvoir, Virginia he returned to the 84th Army Band of V Corps again in Fulda. Along with many concerts, and parades both in Fulda and through-out the local area, the one thing he enjoyed most was taking his brass group to the border out posts in the Colonel's helicopter on Christmas Day. They played for the border troops but also for the people in East Germany, where carols is part of that religious opium of the mind.

In 1974, William and his family returned from Fulda Germany again to the 392nd Army Band at Fort Lee and the Petersburg area. On the first of March of 1976, he retired from military service as a Master Sergeant and made his home in Petersburg.

After his military retirement, he started attending school at John Tyler Community College and in September of 1977, he transferred to Virginia State University where he graduated this school with a degree in library science.

He was a faithful member of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Our Redeemer, Petersburg, Virginia from January 9, 1977 until his death on November 28, 1987. He sang in the choir, served on the Church Council and as an active member of the Lutheran Church Men.
