Scan of my uncle's WWI service record

[Rick the Librarian]

I inserted it in the original post about M1903 #165,617, but it didn't get noticed, so I'll scan it again. Note the changed name. He enlisted under an assumed name. Rifle s/n is at the bottom of the page. He shot Marksman one year and Sharpshooter the next.

One thing I looked for in his records was to see if he served under any company-grade officers who later "made good" but I couldn't read most of their signatures.

Okay that works. Replace the squiggly brackets with square brackets to link in an image:

Whether police or the military, the quotation fits!!

I thought you might be referring to the Militia (us).
