Military archives free online only until May 31st.
People interested in what their ancestors did in wartime are getting a free look, until the end of the month, at the vast collection of military records online.
The National Archives and Ancestry.com have worked out an agreement to speed the transfer of millions more war records to the Web and make an existing collection free for people to see during a Memorial Day commemoration from Tuesday through May 31st.
Military records containing information on some 100 million people can be accessed free at www.ancestry.com/military. After May 31st, a paid subscription will be required to see them.
