In honor of Victory in Europe Day --VE Day--(May 8) , Fold3, an Ancestry
affiliate, is offering free access to its World War ll Collection through
May 15, 2016 11:59 p.m. MT. The collection has over 90 million records
including Army registers, Navy cruise books, Navy muster rolls, casualty
lists, Army enlistment records, and draft registration cards. You can also
explore records that provide historical context, such as Navy war diaries,
submarine patrol reports, naval press clippings, JAG case files, European
Theater Army records, photos, and beyond. The Holocaust collection is also
included-and that collection is always available without a subscription.
The Holocaust collection is made possible by the (US) National Archives and
the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum.
