Biographical Note
Francis P. Kane was born in Chicago on July 12, 1907 to Francis J. and Bridget (née
Byrnes) Kane. Kane joined the Enlisted Reserve Corps in 1927, and then the Illinois
National Guard in 1932. Major General Francis P. Kane was born on July 12, 1907. He
joined the Enlisted Reserve Corps in 1927, and in 1932, the Illinois National Guard.
During World War II, he served in the Pacific with the 108th Combat Engineers of the
33rd
“Prairie” Division of the U.S. Army. Kane spent time training in Hawaii and New
Guinea in 1943-1944. In late 1944, the 33rd
Division was sent to Luzon, Philippines and
assigned the task of capturing the city of Baguio. Once that was achieved, the division
stayed in central Luzon until war’s end, and they were then sent to Honshu, Japan until
1946. Kane earned several citations for his service, including the Silver Star, the Legion
of Merit and the Bronze Star. After the war he continued to serve with the 33rd Division
of the Illinois National Guard, finally as a Major General and the Guard's commander in
the mid-1960s, until he was removed from command in February 1968 by Governor
Kerner. Kane also commanded a North Shore post of the American Legion, as well as the
Chicago Chapter of the Military Order of the World Wars. He also served as vice
president of the Association of the United States Army. Supplementary to his military
service, Kane served as a trustee for the Metropolitan Sanitary District of Greater
Chicago (1962-1967) and Deputy Commissioner of Public Works, City of Chicago, in
1967. In 1968 he was appointed Special Assistant to the Mayor in charge of Gun
Registration.
Scope and Content of the Collection
The Francis P. Kane, Citizen Soldier collection consists of military documents,
photographs, military uniforms, insignia, medals and flags related to his service with the
Army in the Pacific Theater during WWII with the 108th Combat Engineers of the 33rd
Division of the U.S. Army, then later as a Maj. Gen. in the National Guard, and also his
active time in several military and veterans associations. It also contains immigration and
service records pertaining to his father, Francis. J. Kane, from Ireland.
Arrangement
The collection arrived with no discernible arrangement and was rearranged
chronologically into series by PML staff. The collection is contained within 2 legal
boxes and 1 oversize box. The collection is arranged into series according to personal
papers, military papers, and photographs.
Series One: Personal Papers, 1899-1979, Box 1
These records pertain to Maj. Gen. Kane's father, Francis J. Kane, with citizenship and
enlistment records. Also included are records pertaining to Maj. Gen. Kane's personal
life after the military as the Deputy Commissioner of Public Works in Chicago, and the
Commander of the North Shore American Legion post, such as speeches and banquet
programs.
Series Two: Military Papers, 1935-1959, Box 1,
These records include Maj. Gen. Kane's Personnel Files from the National Guard and
Army, military citations including the award for the Bronze Star Silver Star, and the
