Finding U.S. military records is challenging due to the 1973 fire at the National Personnel Records Center which destroyed millions of files, compounded by privacy restrictions, the scattered nature of records across multiple repositories, limited online availability, and the fact that earlier records often lack detailed personal information. However, records can be found and we will learn how in this session.  This class is led by Nancy Moffett.

We are now running these meetings both in-person and on Zoom. Registration is required:
