The Fate of Local Registrants for WWII

List of Registrants Accepted for Service

Murray County, OK

Hi Dennis
I don't if this will be of any use or interest. I cannot put a date on when I got it. I got it out of the Sulphur newspaper in 1995. It is not World War I and I don't really understand military terms on the classificatons. But it might be of some use....how are you liking this wonderful weather?
