From the front lines to 100: A WWII veteran's journey
On his 20th birthday, Lawrence Ralston knew that his small beginnings as a son of a farmer were no comparison to the war he faced. Fighting in the 20th Infantry during World War II in Germany, Ralston said that his mind was already made up on not returning back home. So, he would fight with everything in him to make his service count. I had been drafted and then (went) on to basic training in Texas,' Ralston said. 'We knew that we were going to Germany because everything pointed to there. I prepared myself to not be coming back.' Ralston recalls his first combat mission taking place on his 20th birthday in 1944, but more than that he remembers the many men that lost their lives, men who he says shouldn't have. 'I remember at first we were being attacked in battle, they pulled back and then they started again,' Ralston said. 'The rest of the battle was basically over, so much of our work involved trying to clear towns.' With less than 70,000 Americans remaining of the 16. 4 million who served in World War II, the opportunity for veterans of this time to share their stories are few and far between. Making the choice to give up his life, Ralston recalls what being in the military meant for him. 'Well, it's a terrific honor for me to be in the service,' Ralston said. 'If I were younger, I would still attempt to do the same thing because America was a wonderful country.' After the war, Ralston returned to his farming roots and went on to sell sewing machines, a career that spanned nearly 70 years. Today, he enjoys life at an independent living facility in St. Joseph. 'I don't know how to put this into words but I just appreciate we did,' Ralston said. 'We were in a lot of trouble there and we still may be now, but I believe the good Lord will stop it. ___ © 2025 the St. Joseph News-Press Distributed by Tribune Content Agency, LLC.

Ohio man connected to 1977 killing of woman in California now facing charges
An Ohio man has been charged in the 1977 murder of a woman in San Jose, California due to a fingerprint found on a pack of cigarettes, according to a press release from the Deputy District Attorney of the County of Santa Clara. [DOWNLOAD: Free WHIO-TV News app for alerts as news breaks] Jeanette Ralston was strangled to death in February of 1977 after leaving a bar with an unknown man. She was found in the back seat of her Volkswagen Beetle at an apartment that was near the bar, the court says. Evidence gathered at the time showed that she had been strangled with a shirt that was tied around her neck, was sexually assaulted, and the killer had tried to light the car on fire, but it did not burn. TRENDING STORIES: Ohio man killed in murder-suicide while mowing his lawn, neighbors say State lawmaker pushes to ban noon football kickoffs for state universities Police ID 2 killed in separate Springfield shootings Willie Eugene Sims is accused of killing Ralston, and was arraigned in court in Ashtabula, Ohio where he is waiting to be extradited to California, according to the release. There were no suspects at the time, but a fingerprint on a cigarette pack matched Sims in August of 2024. Sims had been convicted for an assault to commit murder in 1978. He moved out of state before his DNA was entered into the California database, according to the release. Investigators travelled to Ohio to collect Sims' DNA weeks ago, and found that it matched DNA found on Ralston's fingernails and the shirt used in her strangulation, according to the release. If found guilty, Sims could spend 25-years-to-life in prison. [SIGN UP: WHIO-TV Daily Headlines Newsletter]
