WWII Army Database Now Online    - notice  ARMY (which does include the Army Air Corps, the precursor to the air force...)US National Archives has a new database of 9 million people who enlisted in the Army in World War II, though it is not complete. World War II Electronic Army Serial Number Merged File. http://aad.archives.gov/aad/title_list.jsp When you get click the RED SEARCH BUTTON then click the pull down menu next tot he query box, then scroll to the (bottom?) "World War 1939-1945," then click submit. check this to know about what you are looking at http://www.archives.gov/aad/whats_new.html then when you are done (can that be?) go back and check the OTHER databases...! this is a g-r-e-a-t way to back into where you should  be looking for 1930 census records because it tell you where they enlisted.... and it includes living people not just those who have passed...but remember, not complete! amazing, 9 million and still not complete... THERE IS NOT an all database search...it would be too much of a hog to most systems to do that so as a researcher, you must click each data base and do your searches... I suggest that you be methodical...make a list or print out the data bases and then make a list of all the names that you will check and be sure, when you find something (and I know you will) that you get those full citings.... ==== KYCASEY Mailing List ==== To send a message to the list, Send your message to [email protected] ------ End of Forwarded Message
