I did subscribe to their list and they say so far nearly 400 have subscribed. I now have 3 digests and they are about 30 messages each, all asking for lookups among each other. I don't need this Cassie, a lot of the cemeteries have been done and the archeologist at Ft. Hood has been a great help I am referring to being done in the past. I don't see how it would be involved with the Genealogical Society. I have one disk that is titled "Ft. Hood, those moved and those there". I have no idea how complete it is.
