Webinar Description

World War II research is surrounded by stories and myths which often give people the perception they cannot obtain any information about military service. Have you heard nothing exists for women and African Americans? Did you know you probably have clues in your home that you weren't aware existed?

Have you heard, ‘All the records burned!’ Have you read on a website that you must be the next-of-kin to receive information? Do you think sending in one form to request records gives you everything available? Do you know there are additional records at NPRC, that staff will not search for you, that are required for Army and Army Air Forces research? Do you think starting your search in unit records will provide all the answers?

I will answer these questions and more.

Webinar Replay

In this hour and 15 minute-long webinar you will learn everything you need to know to locate and document as much information as possible before you start requesting military records.

Everything you learn also applies to WWI, Korea, and Vietnam war research. Using WWII as a foundation, we will bust myths, tell stories that explain what is available and how you can get started on your own at home.
