Wittenberg was born on May 2, 1920, in La Crosse to Frank and Sylvia (Miles) Wittenberg.1 He was named after his grandfather, Julius Wittenberg.2 Frank Wittenberg was a painter and wallpaper hanger.3 Young Julius was just four years old when Sylvia Wittenberg filed for divorce in September 1924 from her husband of 18 years. She alleged that Frank Wittenberg had "repeatedly struck her, used abusive language toward her and failed to properly support her."4 2 Four years later, Frank Wittenberg was living in Waupun, Wisconsin.5 He had taken a job as a guard at the Wisconsin state prison in Waupun. Julius, and his brother, Frank Jr., who was two years older, lived with their father at Waupun, as did a 21-year-old housekeeper named Virginia H. Ebner.6 Sylvia Wittenberg had also moved on. In October 1929, she married Arthur Hoeft in the German Lutheran parsonage in Caledonia, Minnesota.7 Arthur Hoeft of La Crosse was a veteran of World War I.8 In 1924, he had started working for his sister, Helen Mae Hoeft, at the Paramount Photo Shop at 225 Main Street.

  • Communication to UNIT Pocs UNIT Pocs Are Authorized the Following Options for MC BALL Must Do's When Making MC Ball Deposits
    Communication to UNIT POCs MCBALL TICKET PURCHASES & MCBALL DEPOSITS UNIT POCs are authorized the following options for MC BALL Unit POCs can deposit MC Ball money at any MCCS clubs cash cages listed below for the purpose of a later purchase of tickets or to deposit MC Ball fundraising money. Note: Deposits made must be coded to your Unit’s USMC Ball Fund Raising account, coded to BUM105.4501.00000.0010.210801.000.0.U105XX.000.00000.00000 (See enclosure 1 for your XX, Unit Code). Camp Schwab – Beachhead Camp Courtney – Hashmarks SNCO Club Camp Hansen – The Palms Camp Kinser – Surfside Cam Foster - Ocean Breeze 1. Unit POCs can purchase tickets from the MCCS facility where your MC Ball will be held. This is of course the most direct and easiest approach. Must Do’s when making MC Ball Deposits (i.e. not MC Ball Ticket Purchases) Unit Funds Administrator: Jasmin Kube [email protected] (Duty Phone 645-6776) The Unit Funds Administrator, Jasmin Kube, MUST be notified via email above when you are making a MC Ball deposit at any facility other than the Installation Finance Unit Funds desk. The MCCS Club facilities have been instructed to notify the Unit Funds Administrator of all deposits made (not ticket purchases). Nevertheless, it is done with greater certainty if the Unit POC also scans and emails to the Unit Funds Administrator a copy of the completed MCCS Okinawa MC Ball Deposit Form and the receipt from the club’s POS system (attached in the website). Without this communication Unit Funds Administrator, your MC Ball account may not accurately and timely reflect the deposit(s) made at facilities other than the MCCS Installation Finance office and could cause delay when submitting your NAVMC 11652 at a later date requesting the expenditure of funds to purchase the MC Ball tickets.
