Event Details
Have you ever wondered what dad or grandpa did in the war? What happened to your uncle who died? What was training and combat like? How did grandpa get wounded? What happened to the family during and after the war? Answers can be found. Once you have established what units your service member was in and where they served, it is time to explore unit-level records.
In this session, military reseacher Jennifer Holik will teach you the research strategy to piece together your veteran's story and will discuss how to explore various histories, journals, photos, and maps for all the military branches.
