Subject: [GV] US Military Records Access

Hello All,
Ancestry.com has entered a new collaboration with NARA (national archives) and in honor of that they are making access to their military records free for a time period. I
have found WWI Draft records to be particularly helpful in my GR research although there is good information also in the other kinds of records.
From Eastman's Online Genealogy Newsletter May 20, 2008
Ancestry.com is making its entire U.S. Military Collection -- the largest online collection of American military records -- available for free to the public. From May 20 through May 31, people can log on to http://www.ancestry.com/military to view more than 100 million names and 700 titles and databases of military records, the majority of which come from NARA, from all 50 U.S. states.
