Find My Past
Our
war heroes are never forgotten and it's at this time of year that we pay
tribute to their bravery and sacrifice.
Distinguished Conduct Medal Citations 1914-1920. These records hold wonderful details about your ancestors' acts of bravery during WWI that earned them the medal.
William Harold Coltman is reported to be the most decorated other rank of WWI. William was a stretcher bearer so he won his medals without firing a single shot.

Fold 3
Introducing the Honor Wall
Unveiled this
week in honor of Veterans Day, the Fold3 Honor Wall pays tribute to
millions of men and women who served our nation, from colonial days to the
present.
We invite you
to visit the Honor Wall and help us pay tribute to America's veterans by
sharing your own memories, stories, and photos of a loved one. Whether you have
family or friends serving now, or have ancestors who fought in the
Revolutionary War or other conflicts in between, join us in commemorating them.
With your help, the Honor Wall will keep their stories alive.
Please share with us websites you have found useful while researching your Military Ancestors
