Lest we forget: this weekend, as we observe Veterans Day in the U.S. (Remembrance Day in Britain and Commonwealth states), several genealogy websites offer free access to their military records. Both Ancestry.com (US) and Ancestry.co.uk (UK) offer free access through Monday, November 13, as does FindMyPast.com. Fold3.com has free access through Sunday, November 12. This weekend could be the perfect time for you to explore the history of ancestors in the military.
