The Databases
|
Currently, this website is supported by a number databases that provide genealogical information about personnel who have served in the Armed Services of the Sudan Campaigns, Zulu Campaign, Anglo-South African Campaigns, World War I, World II, Korean and Vietnam Wars, inclusive of all countries involved. Not all databases are ready for release but are being updated regularly. Each database will be made available as it is completed to informative levels. To assist with the release of the databases, we invite and accept contributions of personal biographies, personal anecdotes, unit details, letters, diaries and personal artefacts from individual contributors, all of which undergo professional conservation and archiving. As each database is released, it is listed below. If you think you are able to assist, please email: research@mistory.org. Credits for all sources of information, which constitute the contents of the databases, are itemised on the 'Credits' link below.

Join the Team
|
The effort to collate the profiles of service personnel, for the period between the Napoleonic and Vietnam wars, is extensive and ongoing. To assist with the database collection, the MHRC has a team, largely of volunteers, without whom this work would be exhaustive. The MHRC actively seeks additional volunteers to assist with the extensive research and data management effort. Volunteers are always welcome and can possibly work from any part of the world. Volunteers and staff alike are bound by the MHRC privacy and confidentiality policies. Wish to join the team? Please email: admin@mistory.org, we would love to hear from you.
