Private James “Jimmie” H. Rhinehart wearing his U.S. Army uniform. James was born in Woodstock, the only son of Robert E. Lee (1879-1941) and Blanche Mae (Ryan) (1890-1959) Rhinehart. His father worked for a local telephone company and later operated a draying business. James grew up on Muhlenberg Street in Woodstock and had three older sisters. He graduated from Woodstock High School. He worked at Southern Dairies in Woodstock until he enlisted in the U.S. Army in August 1943. At first, he was stationed at Ft. Eustis, Virginia, then Ft. Meade, Maryland. By the late summer of 1944, however, he was fighting in France with Company C in the 175th Infantry Regiment of the 29th Infantry Division. Tragically, he was killed in action that September. Posthumously, he was awarded a purple heart for his actions. Private Rhinehart is buried in Normandy, France.
