==Background== | |||
Military records identify people who served in the military or who were eligible for service. They may be very useful for genealogical research, especially the detailed service records of the 20th century. The Family History Library has some records of the Russian military conscription lists and other related docs of the 19<sup>th</sup> and 20<sup>th</sup> centuries. Use Familysearch.org and search the FamilySearch Catalog for “Russian Military Records”. | Military records identify people who served in the military or who were eligible for service.
