Military service and discharge
records are federal records found generally at the National Archives
and Military Personnel Records Center. The
Utah State Archives holds a large collection of military records
that includes original territorial militia and later National Guard records,
compiled service cards, burial data, and copies of discharges.
This bibliography, arranged
by conflict or subject, provides the record series titles and numbers.
These series are in many cases linked with a finding aid or series inventory
describing the contents and arrangement and suggesting how to best use
the series.
