Do you know his Army Serial Number?
NO, but do have his soc#354-16-4367
We have a birth date of 1/15/1927, What state was he born in? Where was his permanent residence before enlistment? Where was his residence where he settled after discharge?
Janice says he was originally from Illinois. He then lived in Boca Raton, Florida with his first wife until 1974.
What are his father`s & mother`s names?
Don't have that information
He enlisted in Florida? In Ft Lauderdale?
Yup, that's what it looks like. He told his Janice (his 2nd wife) he knew he was going to be drafted, so he headed down to Florida.
Attached is the only document Ancestry.com had on him. I confirmed this information with Janice, when I sent it to her yesterday.
