Over the past 25 years we have developed a series of databases dealing with World War II. In all of our databases, each field is completely searchable which allows for an unprecedent flexibility in our search options. Prices may vary because of the search criteria but no one individual record cost exceeds $6.00. Fees are generally less if ordered in volume.

Casualty Database

The most recent addition is the Casualty Database. It lists 405,809 members of the Armed Forces lost during the conflict. Of that total, 553 were women. The releasable fields of each record are the name, rank, serial number, date of death, disposition code, temporary burial information/final burial information, home state, county/town, gender (females only), unit, group, location of loss, and remarks. See example below.

Burials. The "6" alone in the disposition and burials column indicates "non-recoverable" (missing). Of the eight digit numbers, the first four are where the body was held pending the wishes of the next-of-kin. The second four are the final resting place.

Remaining fields are self-explanitory.

Aircraft Databases
