where & when they were born,

I'll update their records as quickly as possible .....

" Navy & Coast Guard "

Also please note: The records show these men and women as either enlisting, being originally from, or having strong ties to " Albany County ".On some of the records you will note that the "Cemetery/Memorial" column shows "unknown".

Whether a soldier or sailor was " Killed In Action ", " Missing In Action ",
" Died of Wounds ", or even died in the " Line Of Duty " ......Whether a soldier or sailor was awarded medals or not ...... They are all
" HEROES "
in my book and deserve all the recognition they can get !!
