Fold3 The web's premier collection of original military records.
(562)

Fold3 provides convenient access to US military records, including the stories, photos, and personal documents of the men and women who served. The Fold3 name comes from a traditional flag folding ceremony in which the third fold is made in honor and remembrance of veterans who served in defense of their country and to maintain peace throughout the world. Original records at Fold3 help you discover and share stories about these everyday heroes, forgotten soldiers, and the families that supported them. On Fold3, you can combine records found on the site with what you have in your own albums and shoeboxes to create an online memorial for someone who served.

This photo of the USS Cowpens shows the dramatic pitching of the ship during the storm. Explore War Diaries for the typhoon on Fold3: https://f3.social/6ybt
