U.S. Army honorable discharge paper of Edwin Lawrence Wilson. It was dated Jul.16, 1916 and Edwin was a private and was discharged because he was underweight. It also stated that he was born in Kansas City, Jackson county, Missouri, that he was a drug clerk by occupation, had brown eyes and hair, was 6' 1-1/4' tall, and was 21 years and eight months old. The paper stated it was in Nevada, Missouri and was signed by a major. Apparently Edwin must have enlisted again later after being discharged this time as a second set of discharge papers exist saying that Edwin enlisted in Dec.1917. [W__0124]
