Today, we remember Corporal Raymond B. Wilhelm, 31, of Wilmington, Delaware who lost his life on May 30, 1951. Corporal Wilhelm made a deeply humanitarian but vain attempt to swerve his patrol vehicle away from a mongrel dog in the roadway. A graduate of the University of Delaware and a four-year veteran, Corporal Wilhelm died shortly after the accident on U.S. Route 40 near Glasgow, Delaware. Following his accident, Corporal Wilhelm was rushed to Delaware Hospital where ironically his sister, Margaret E. Hughes, a nurse, was attending to another trooper who had been injured in an accident eleven days earlier. Joining the force in 1947, Corporal Wilhelm was stationed at Troop 5 (Bridgeville) for one year and then transferred to Troop 2 (State Road). He had served in the U.S. Army in World War II and achieved the rank of 2nd Lieutenant in the artillery. His troop commander, Captain Winfield Cochran, described Raymond Wilhelm as “one of the finest troopers on the force, a man of outstanding qualities and a splendid brother officer.”
