I just realized that the Draft Registration images posted for WWII for some areas are incorrectly linked together. I've found two and both are in the state of Pennsylvania. Here is the problem: There are two pages for the WWII Driaft Registration-the top page of the image lists age, birth location, current address, person to contact & occupation and the bottom page lists height, weight, eye & hair color, complexion and race. In both instances I have found that the two pages on the same image are for different men. For the two I took notice of, I know for sure the race of both men. For most states, the two pages are on different images but for the state of Pennsylvania both pages were scanned together. It probably would not stand out if both men were of the same race but these two are not so it really stands out.

Here is the explanation and more info on what you are seeing on the PA Draft cards. Scroll down to the last paragraph on the page.

Thanks for reminding me. I remember reading that several years ago but never had occasion to work on any men from Pa until now.
