I have a man, After college from Cal Tech, he joined the US Army in 1931 to be a pilot.  He was still in the service 1941 when we entered the war…Army Air Corps…and when he retired in 1961..US Air Force

*Do you enter all 3 names, Army, Army Air Corps and US Air Force for his categorization?

He is Moyers-739   He ended his lifes work as a Vice Commander at Andrews AFB in DC.

With all that service I would put all 3 categories because he served in all 3.

I was thinking the same. Will the Data Docs or Catagory Docs come around and change it?  

So, one Category block for Army   Another for Army Air Corps and another for Air Force.

Anyone have a better system?
Thanks Kevin
All 3 services are different and should not be grouped together. Just like the new Space Force which grew out of the Air Force.
thank you, Lynn
