Virginia War Memorial adds Staunton general's WWII papers to archive

The family of Brig. Gen. Morris Thompson Warner donated his personal wartime papers, correspondence and military records to the Virginia War Memorial in Richmond, preserving the story of a Staunton native who helped train and lead American infantry forces during World War II. The collection offers a firsthand account of Warner's military service and his connection to Staunton and the Shenandoah Valley. Warner began his 28 years of military service as a cadet at Pennsylvania State University, where he graduated as cadet commander of the corps. According to his family, he was federalized into the U.S. Army for deployment to Europe during World War I, but the war ended before he was stationed there. In 1922, Warner was assigned as training and plans officer for the 116th Infantry Regiment, a Virginia National Guard unit with historical ties to the Stonewall Brigade. A history of the regiment lists Warner as its training and plans officer beginning Aug. 10, 1922. He rose through the ranks while also building a small manufacturing company and participating in civic life in the Shenandoah Valley. As World War II intensified, then-Lt. Col. Warner took command of the 116th Infantry Regiment and oversaw the preparation of its
