US MILITARY OFFICER INFORMATION 1900-1950

 

The US Army and Navy have published lists of permanent officers since their earliest days. These registers contain information, on active officers, retired officers, and those who have left service during the year preceding publication due to discharge, resignation, or death. We have collected a number of vintage annual registers from the US Army/USAF, USN/USMC, and USCG. Most are from the World War Two era, but we have many from before and after. We offer copies of pages that pertain to any officer listed. The content varies greatly between time periods and branches. Army/Air Force Registers usually contain name, rank, serial number, date of birth, military education, military ratings, corps assignments, retirement date, and dates of promotions. USN/USMC vary greatly between years. Collectively, they include, name rank, serial number, special courses, date of birth, dates of rank, retirement date,date of entry, and months at sea. On most of the registers, listings for those who left service, contain only name, rank, and date of death, if applicable. We have indexed many of our registers, but still have many more that are unindexed. We will add additional names to the list as those indexes are completed. Keep in mind that much of the indexing has been done by scanning, so some minor errors in names and serial numbers are likely. Names are listed alphabetically.
