    1. [ALL] World War I service--NC Johnson, Wilkinsburg
    2. c. william johnson jr

    3. My Grandfather, Norman C. Collier (1897-1964) of Wilkinsburg served in the military from April 18, 1918 through December 13, 1918 according to a Record of Burial Place of Veteran card I found on Ancestry.com. World War I ended in November of 1918. My question is: was his service so short because WWI was over?  Did they muster out all these new recruits coming in because they no longer needed them?
