National Archives Military Records Free Online until 5/31/08

[mood4amelody]

Military records containing information on some 100 million people can be accessed at http://landing.ancestry.com/military...31&o_lid=31731 (http://landing.ancestry.com/military/collections.aspx?html=main&URL=military%2fcollections.aspx%3fhtml%3dmain&o_iid=31731&o_lid=31731)

People interested in what their ancestors did in wartime are getting a free look, until the end of the month, at a vast collection of military records online. The National Archives and Ancestry.com have worked out an agreement to speed the transfer of millions more historical records to the Web and make an existing military collection free for people to see during a Memorial Day commemoration from now through May 31.

After May 31, a paid subscription will be required to see them.

This is so cool! I found my great great grandfather's WWI registration card! I also found out that he and I share a birthday...except for the 1884 part. I saved it and ordered a print for &7.99+$4 shipping. My Aunt and Uncle live in his son's (my great grandfather's) antebellum house. I think I'll make copies of the print and give the original to them. Nice post!
