Description, Physical Record, and Enlistment Volunteers (Medical Records) Major George W. Ford

The Description, Physical Record, and Enlistment Volunteers records serve critical purposes in military documentation. The Description provides essential details about a soldier, including personal information and identifying features. The Physical Record documents the soldier’s medical examination findings, noting any discovered defects or conditions that, while not severe enough to warrant rejection, could potentially be exacerbated by the duties the soldier will undertake. The Enlistment Volunteers records serve as a comprehensive record of those who willingly join the military, capturing vital information about their enlistment process. This documentation ensures that the military is aware of any health concerns that may impact a soldier’s performance or require special consideration during their service.
