Military Records Online

Ancestry.com is running a special that I think ends on June 6th. Log on and you can search through their military records.

As most of you know, a fire in 1977 destroyed a lot of military records. I found my Grandfather's Draft Registration Certificate from 1918 - very cool!! I couldn't locate information on my father (28 years service; dischared in 1960) or on me (2 years, 7 months, 11 hours, 30 minutes service; discharged in 1970).

Free is great, but why do you have to register for free, what do they get by you signing up for free????
