I have used www.footnote.com to secure many military records on men in our tree. Although one must pay for the site useage, I felt I got my money's worth the first two weeks of my year's membership. Reason: They not only have the NARA pension records, but they have the Military Service records. Many of my Rev War and Civil War vets did not live long enough to file for a pension, but I could look under service records and download off the microfilm to prove when and where they served. I think they offer guest trials.... that is how I started there. Been a while since I used them.
