Re: Question concerning CMSR's or lack of

“I agree that most of his Records are found on fold3 but what about his prisoner flow and date of death and cause of death? While it's possible that they could be on a cross over with another soldiers records somewhere, they are not on fold 3.

“I am curious to you finding the other three and hope you will acknowledge that you cannot locate them if in fact you can not.”

.....

I take it then, you found his POW records on the microfilm?

No, I do not find the others.

Are we sure that the Footnote/Fold3 records were taken from the microfilm rolls, or rather, the individual actual cards? If the latter, I can understand how these some of these records are missing. It baffles me that individual records could be overlooked, unless the guy spinning the wheel was bored and dozing!

Just how readable are the “missing” records you found on the microfilm? From my experience, many microfilm cards when printed, could not be read. In those cases, I had the clerks pull the actual record for me to copy.
