The order of arrangement of the facts of service in each individual record given is the same, as nearly as pos- sible, as the original entries, and is as follows : The name; the place of residence, if given ; the rank; the kind of document whereon the record appears; the enlistment and discharge, if given; the time of service; remarks.

A discrepancy will sometimes be noted between the service given and the actual service as figured between the dates of enlistment and discharge.
