Research smarter. Find the records. Understand the service.
Every military branch kept records differently — and that’s where most researchers get stuck. What works for the Army won’t exactly work for the Navy. Air Force records don’t behave like Marine Corps records. Merchant Marine and Coast Guard research follows entirely different rules.
These small-group coaching sessions live on Zoom Meeting are designed to walk you step-by-step through a proven two-part research process, tailored specifically to the military branch you’re researching and your needs.
What We’ll Cover
In these guided group coaching sessions, you’ll learn how to:
- Apply a two-step research strategy specific to your veteran’s branch
- Locate the right records (not just the popular ones)
- Navigate Fold3, Ancestry, FamilySearch, NARA Catalog, and branch-specific sources
- Build context so records actually tell a story
This is not generic military research advice — it’s branch-specific, practical, and immediately usable. If you’ve ever thought “I know the records are out there — I just don’t know how to find them,” this is for you. Join a branch-specific military coaching group and learn how to locate records, understand service, and uncover the story your veteran left behind. This is not a general presentation. It’s active, personalized research support. Attendance live on Zoom is strongly encouraged. A replay will be sent to registrants after the live event.
