Pulled my grandfather's service record from World War II, was able to put a flag case together, can be a little tedious but worth it

SrA John Monette Work at Googling his name. Dig into Social Security records for date of death and Social Security number. Ancestry.Com — TRY Trial memberships - they will want you to hook up for your life.

Time and effort will be required, I really enjoyed my family history efforts
