John Deming was born on March 24, 1884 in Columbus, Ohio. He joined the French Foreign Legion after having previously served for a brief time in the Canadian Army. He was killed in June 22, 1917, at Vaux Varennes and is buried in the French Military Cemetery at Cormicy.

From American fighters in the Foreign legion, 1914-1918 by Paul Ayres Rockwell: 

Schuyler Deming was fatally wounded during the German bombardment. It was his first day in the trenches after a short leave. A mortar shell exploded near him; his left leg was torn off* just below the knee, and bits of splinter lodged in his stomach. Deming was rushed to a field hospital, and died there on June 22, 1917.

During WW2, the 357th Infantry Regiment, remembered his sacrifice with a graveside tribute.
