Submit WW1 Stories of Service

INTRODUCTION
This Form submit a Story of Service about a person who served America in World War One. The person can be a member of your family, or someone whose information you have collected as part of a classroom, Scout, or other organizational project. Some five million men and women from the United States served in uniform during World War One. The United States suffered 375,000 casualties during World War One, including 116,516 deaths. Two million individuals from the United States served overseas during World War One, including 200,000 naval personnel who served on the seas. Uncounted millions of other Americans supported the nation's war effort in America's factories, shipyards, farms, and elsewhere. The stories of the service of all these Americans should not be forgotten, and what you enter here about each individual will be recorded in the permanent record of the United States World War One Centennial Commission.
