Scope and Contents

This series consists of seven folders in box 1, as well as an oversize box that is kept offsite. One folder contains a certificate from the Association of Army and Navy Stores. Another contains documents from military service organizations. A third folder contains a blank application for the Purple Heart, as well as an undated clipping that mentions Francisco’s injury in October 1918. A fourth contains papers related to Francisco’s “adjusted service certificate,” applied for between 1925 and 1937. Other folders contain a railroad ticket and Pennsylvania Railroad timetable, documents related to Francisco’s military registration in 1917, and his honorable discharge papers and enlistment record.

The oversize box kept offsite contains two items: a poster noting that Francisco “served with honor” in the war, and a portion of the front section of a Stars and Stripes newspaper dated April 26, 1918.
