Greetings,
I have just purchased a US Rifle of 1917 (Eddystone) in very good condition. I have been able to track down the manuf. date by serial number as July/1918. I am looking for any advice on finding out where is was sent after that, and what unit it was issued to. I am hoping to find out if it was shipped "Over There". I realize records from that era may be hard to come by, if they still exist. My google-fu was not strong on this one, so I'm hoping someone may be able t help.
Thanks,
Bill
