Uncovering Your Veteran Ancestors

I am a proud veteran of the United States Army who comes from a military family. My father served in the Navy and my younger siblings also joined the Army. I love searching for records of my ancestors who also served. Even if you’re not a veteran, please take the time to acknowledge your family members who answered the call to serve our country. Hopefully, you have military photos or possibly discharge papers for your military ancestors. One important point to keep in mind, having a Military Draft Registration Card does not automatically mean they were drafted or served. It just means they registered. You must search the records to see if they actually served.
