This email was sent to the KyCasey-L. I found my uncle...John Ross who was
from Catlettsburg. He was a prisoner of war in Germany during WWII. Thought
others might be interested.

Copied from the Surry NC mail list.......

WWII Army Database Now Online    - notice  ARMY (which does include the Army
Air Corps, the precursor to the air force...)US National Archives has a new
database of 9 million people who enlisted in the Army in World War II,
though
it is not complete.
World War II Electronic Army Serial Number Merged File.

When you get click the RED SEARCH BUTTON then click the pull down menu next
tot he query box, then scroll to the (bottom?) "World War 1939-1945,"
then click submit.

check this to know about what you are looking at
http://www.archives.gov/aad/whats_new.html


then when you are done (can that be?) go back and check the OTHER
databases...!
this is a g-r-e-a-t way to back into where you should  be looking for 1930
census records because it tell you where they enlisted.... and it includes
living people not just those who have passed...but remember, not complete!
amazing, 9 million and still not complete...

THERE IS NOT an all database search...it would be too much of a hog to most
systems to do that so as a researcher, you must click each data base and
do your searches... I suggest that you be methodical...make a list
or print out the data bases and then make a list of all the names that you
will check and be sure, when you find something (and I know you will) that
you get those full citings....
