Description

Officer booklets contain clear overviews with thousands of names of officers, the year of appointment, their rank, the regiment they were in and where they were stationed. These booklets are a wonderful resource for historians, researchers and genealogists with an interest in military history. Because the design of the officer booklets has been adapted and expanded over the centuries, the information from different periods will be clearly different. The National Military Museum (NMM) has digitized the officer booklets from the period 1725-1940.
