War Department
US Army Officers
PROMOTION ORDERS (SPECIAL ORDERS)

Special Orders were created for every personnel action of the War Department. Unfortunately, most of the day to day actions were done at an organizational level and those records were only maintained for a short time. However, transfers between corps of the Army, officer appointments, officer promotions, special training, retirements, and other special assignments were done by the War Department. These records were placed in bound volumes and kept in military libraries until later discarded. We have found a number of these that include sets of the years: 1917, 1918 (Nov-Dec), 1921, 1924, 1926, 1929, 1930, 1931, 1932, 1938 (Jun-Dec), 1939, 1940, 1941, 1942, 1943, 1945, and 1946 (Jan-Jun). These volumes clearly contain some of the information lost in the tragic 1973 fire in the Defense Personnel Records Center.
