(Natchez, Mississippi, October 26, 1895 ? \u2013 Waddington, January 7, 1918).1<\/a><\/p>\n

Joseph Hiserodt Sharpe\u2019s paternal ancestors, apparently originally from Scotland, came to Cecil County, Maryland, via Ireland in the early eighteenth century.2<\/a> Around 1800, a great-great-grandfather, farmer and miller Thomas Sharpe III, relocated to Kentucky, and his son and grandson both became physicians, the former residing at the end of his life in Rock Island, Illinois, the latter, the grandfather of Joseph Hiserodt Sharpe, settling in Natchez.3<\/a><\/p>\n

On Sharpe\u2019s mother\u2019s side, the Hiserodt family had come from the Westerwald region of Germany to New York in the first part of the eighteenth century.4<\/a> Sharpe\u2019s grandfather, Joseph B. Hiserodt, was born in New York, but grew up in Illinois, where his family had settled by 1850.5<\/a>\u00a0Joseph B. Hiserodt fought on the Union side in the Civil War, serving towards the end of the war in Louisiana and Mississippi as one of the (white) officers in command of the 66th<\/sup> regiment U.S. colored troops.6<\/a> After the war he bought and farmed a plantation, Chevy Chase, in Concordia Parish on the Louisiana side of the Mississippi, where Sharpe\u2019s mother, Margaret Ethlyn Hiserodt, was born. Louis Kerre Sharpe was residing across the river in Natchez; they married and settled in Natchez, where Louis Kerre Sharpe worked as a druggist and commercial traveller. The couple kept up connections with land in Louisiana and resided at least some of the time at their La Marque plantation there.7<\/a><\/p>\n

What appear to be reliable sources show the Sharpe\u2019s first child, Louis Kerre Sharpe, Jr., to have been born in 1893 and Joseph Hiserodt Sharpe himself to have been born October 26, 1895.8<\/a> Newspaper articles from October 1895 document the parents\u2019 society wedding on October 16, 1895, in some detail.9<\/a> One must conclude either that the older son was born out of wedlock and the younger barely in, or that the sons fudged their ages\u2014for which there is considerable precedent among the men of the second Oxford detachment.10<\/a><\/p>\n

Joseph Hiserodt Sharpe apparently attended school in Natchez and then in 1910 enrolled at Sewanee Military Academy in Tennessee.11<\/a> In the fall of 1913 he entered Mississippi Agricultural and Mechanical College, as Mississippi State University was then called, just east of Starkville (Eugene Hoy Barksdale enrolled a year after him there).12<\/a> Sharpe completed his studies in three years, graduating in 1916.13<\/a> He then relocated to Rock Island, Illinois, where his father had a number of relatives. These included Charles Extine Sharpe, who was associated with the Rock Island Plow Company; Joseph Hiserodt Sharpe was employed for a time in that company\u2019s tractor department.14<\/a> \u00a0When the U.S. entered the war, Sharpe enlisted. In May of 1917, he was accepted at the reserve officers training camp at Fort Sheridan in Illinois, where Walter Andrew Stahl and Vincent Paul Oatis, among many others, also trained.15<\/a> Sharpe, along with Stahl and Oatis, applied for and was accepted by the Aviation Section of the Signal Corps and enrolled in the School of Military Aeronautics at the University of Illinois; their class graduated September 1, 1917.16<\/a><\/p>\n

There was much speculation about where graduates from this ground school class would go for actual flying training, with information and plans changing frequently. The initial understanding, according to Oatis, was that the men would \u201cgo to Rantoul [Illinois] to the aviation field and pursue the actual flying game from three to four months.\u201d17<\/a> However, in mid-August 1917, again according to Oatis, there was a request for volunteers \u201cwho would like to go to Italy for their air training.\u00a0\u00a0Right now Italy is about the best in the world in flying, so I grabbed at it and applied. Nearly everyone in our squadron did likewise.\u201d18<\/a>\u00a0After some further confusion as to whether some of those who had signed up might go to France instead, all but five of the thirty in this Illinois S.M.A. class became part of the detachment that set out from New York on September 18, 1917, on the\u00a0Carmania<\/i>, bound for Europe on the understanding that they, the 150 cadets of the \u201cItalian detachment,\u201d would learn to fly in Italy.19<\/a><\/p>\n

The\u00a0Carmania<\/i> docked initially at Halifax, where she joined a convoy for the Atlantic crossing, which commenced on September 21, 1917. The men were assigned to first class; they enjoyed ship board leisure activities, including concerts featuring the violinist Albert Spalding. They also had Italian lessons, conducted by Fiorello La Guardia, and, once they entered dangerous waters, they took turns at submarine watch.<\/p>\n

After an uneventful crossing, the\u00a0Carmania<\/i> docked at Liverpool on October 2, 1917. There the cadets were ordered to proceed not to Italy as they expected, but to Oxford, where they were to attend ground school (again) under the auspices of the Royal Flying Corps\u2019s No. 2 School of Military Aeronautics, much to their initial disgruntlement. Various explanations<\/a> have been offered for the change of plans.20<\/a>\u00a0Whatever the reason, the men of the detachment made their peace with the change and in retrospect recognized the benefits of R.F.C. training. Their British instructors, unlike those in the U.S., had had war flying experience, and this added considerable interest to the course work. Since the men had already covered much of the material, they did not have to study especially hard, and they enjoyed Oxford hospitality and explored the town and surrounding countryside. Another American detachment having already started ground school at Oxford in September, the one that arrived in October came to be called the \u201csecond Oxford detachment.\u201d<\/p>\n

The men were eager to start learning to fly, but disappointment was in store for most of them at the end of four weeks at Oxford. The R.F.C. was able to accommodate twenty men from the detachment at No. 1 Training Depot Station at Stamford in early November, but the others, including Sharpe, set out on November 3, 1917, for Grantham in Lincolnshire to attend a machine gun course at Harrowby Camp. As Parr Hooper, also sent to Grantham, remarked: \u201cIt looks like we got sent here because there was no other place to send us to\u2014playing for time.\u201d21<\/a><\/p>\n

At Grantham they spent two weeks learning about and practicing with the Vickers machine gun. Then, in mid-November, it was determined that there was room at training squadrons for fifty men, and Sharpe was among those selected. Along with nine others (Adolf M. Drey, William Wyman Mathews, George Orrin Middleditch, Oatis, Chester Albert Pudrith, Ervin David Shaw, Fred Trufant Shoemaker, Stahl, and Lynn Lemuel Stratton\u2014all of whom, except Stratton and Shaw, had been in Sharpe\u2019s ground school class in Illinois), he set off on November 19, 1917, for Waddington (about twenty miles north of Grantham and just south of Lincoln) where several R.F.C. training squadrons were located.22<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a>Waddington<\/i><\/a><\/h6>\n

There is little direct documentation of Sharpe\u2019s time at Waddington, but the log book and letters of Oatis are extant, and it is reasonable to assume that Sharpe\u2019s training resembled that of Oatis. The latter did not do any flying during his first two weeks at Waddington\u2014perhaps because he and his fellow cadets were being given yet more ground instruction, or perhaps because of poor weather or a lack of planes. In his first letter home from Waddington, dated December 11, 1917, Oatis is delighted finally to be flying: \u201cIt has taken a long long time to do it but we have finally killed the jinx. Last Tuesday we started flying and most of us are already soloing.\u201d Oatis\u2019s log book shows that late in the morning of Tuesday, December 4, 1917, he put in twenty-five minutes of dual flying in DH.6 (a two-seat plane designed for training). In his letter of December 11, 1917, he also reports that \u201cYesterday\u00a0.\u00a0.\u00a0. Joe Sharpe took a plane up on a solo late in the afternoon and got lost. He didn’t show up at dark and we were all rather worried. He finally phoned in from Nottingham and reported that he had landed in a field when it got dark. Managed to get down safely.\u201d<\/p>\n

Over the course of December and early January, Oatis, and presumably also Sharpe, went up dual with instructors in R.E.8s and then also B.E.2e\u2019s, both two-seater planes designed for reconnaissance and bombing, while also adding to their solo hours and practicing maneuvers in DH.6s.23<\/a><\/p>\n

Oatis\u2019s next letter, his first of the new year, brings the worst news: \u201cPoor Joe Sharpe one of our old crowd from Champaign, was the first of our detachment to die. He was killed instantly in a bad crash on January 7. Nobody saw how the trouble started but it is believed he had tried to loop and lost control while upside down.\u201d24<\/a> This initial uncertainty about the cause of the accident is reflected on the relevant casualty card, which describes the \u201cNature and Cause of Accident\u201d as \u201cObscure,\u201d but which also has added a transcription of the results of a court of inquiry: \u201cCourt found that the pilot was practicing looping or stalling, & beyond the vertical failed to right the machine which finally fell in an uncontrollable dive beyond the vertical.\u201d25<\/a>\u00a0The casualty card indicates Sharpe had been flying DH.6 A9761.<\/p>\n

According to Oatis, \u201c[Sharpe\u2019s] parents were notified officially, and we all cabled our condolences.\u201d26<\/a>\u00a0The condolences, sent to Natchez, appear to have arrived first: \u201cWe send sincere sympathy in the loss of our true friend and comrade, Joseph Sharpe. He leaves the memory of a noble life unselfishly given. Effects cared for. Letters follow. [signed] His American comrades \/ Walter Sohle [sic<\/i>: sc. Stahl].\u201d27<\/a>\u00a0According to the\u00a0Natchez Democrat<\/i> of January 9, 1918, \u201cThe message was received by Mr. Brown, who, with his wife, went to the plantation home at Lamarque to break the sad news\u201d\u2014Frederick Davis Brown of Natchez was married to the former Josephine Hiserodt, sister of Sharpe\u2019s mother. A confirming telegram sent by Adjutant General Henry Pinckney McCain is dated January 10, 1918: \u201cDeeply regret to confirm report of death of J. H. Sharpe, aviation corps. Official telegram sent you at La Marque, La.\u201d28<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0Arthur Shuldham Redfern, the C.O. of No. 48 Training Squadron at Waddington, wrote to Sharpe\u2019s father the day of the accident; Mr. Sharpe received it in early February.28a<\/a><\/p>\n

Unsurprisingly, news of Sharpe\u2019s death spread quickly among members of the second Oxford detachment. Jesse Frank Campbell, at London Colney, wrote of it in his diary on January 8, 1918 (incorrectly identifying the plane as an R.E.8; this misidentification is repeated in the January 12, 1918, entry in\u00a0War Birds<\/i>). John McGavock Grider, also at London Colney, mentions Sharpe\u2019s death in a letter written sometime in January 1918.29<\/a> William Ludwig Deetjen, at Stamford, wrote in his diary on January 11, 1918, that he \u201cJust heard that Sharpe of our Italian Outfit had been killed by a vertical dive in a deH6,\u201d and then on January 18, 1918, having himself just been posted to Waddington:\u00a0 \u201cJoe Sharpe was a mighty fine lad and we all loved him. Too bad that the best men go first.\u201d<\/p>\n

Oatis recounts how Sharpe\u00a0\u201cwas buried with military honors in Lincoln on January 11, six of us who have been together since we joined the aviation corps acting as pall bearers. His untimely and tragic end gave us an awful shock. It was hard to stand beside that grave in a little English churchyard and hear the salute fired, and a bugler blowing \u2018taps\u2019 over the body of our pal.\u201d30<\/a> The six pall bearers were presumably, in addition to Oatis, five of the six other Illinois S.M.A. graduates at Waddington (Drey, Mathews, Middleditch, Pudrith, Shoemaker, and Stahl).<\/p>\n

Middleditch and Pudrith were later buried in the same \u201cU.S.A. plot\u201d at Newport Cemetery in Lincoln, as were second Oxford detachment members Donald Elsworth Carlton and Elwood D. Stanbery. American next of kin of those killed in Europe in World War I were allowed to choose whether a body should remain there or be returned to the U.S. Carlton and Middleditch were eventually reinterred in Brookwood American Military Cemetery in Surrey; the bodies of Pudrith and Stanbery were returned to the U.S.<\/p>\n

Sharpe\u2019s father \u201cwas deeply torn on moving his son Joseph from his solitary grave. At first he wanted his son\u2019s body sent home; he then changed his mind, requesting that the body remain in Europe and that he be allowed to supervise its exhumation . . . for reburial in a military cemetery there. . . .\u201d31<\/a> This was not permitted, and ultimately Sharpe\u2019s body remained where he was first interred, the only American in the cemetery.<\/p>\n

The care of his grave, like that of second Oxford detachment member George Atherton Brader in Doune Cemetery in Girvan, became the responsibility of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission.32<\/a><\/p>\n
