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

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
