Researching 20th-century veterans is especially difficult, as a fire destroyed millions of Official Military Personnel Files (OMPF) in 1973. This presentation will look at a variety of record types and repositories that can be used to find the stories of the WWI and WWII veterans in our families.
This is a free online webinar, but registration is required.
