Genealogy Group Tuesday, April 24, :00 pm This workshop will provide participants with in-depth background into the methods and challenges of researching how Americans served, and sometimes died, while in service in the Korean and Vietnam Wars. Covered will be the challenges of locating military files due to the massive fire at the National Personnel Records Center in 1973, how to mitigate slow governmental department response times, what files remain available for each branch of service, and how to locate them. Step by step research instructions, sample files, and handouts will be provided, with expert training not available to the public. This workshop will include attendee participation, as well as stories of some of the men Bill Beigel has researched and the clients he's worked for, highlighting the significance to families and the demand for this intensely personal and hard to find data. Participants will gain valuable insight for conducting their own military records research, or for adding this specialized field of research to their professional offerings. 8 Bill Beigel is an American military and casualty researcher, specializing in facts relating to Americans who died or went missing in active duty in World War II and the wars with Korea and Vietnam. Beigel's research helps individuals and groups to learn the circumstances of military deaths in 20th Century wars, as next of kin usually received very little information during wartime. To date, Beigel has researched more than sixteen hundred individuals for over a thousand clients in the U.S, Europe, and the Middle East. For more information, please contact Pat Chavarria at (909)
