See the Meta question Conference Room chat: WWI centenary and finding records about WWI service membersConference Room chat: WWI centenary and finding records about WWI service members for details about special online events and free access weekends. To encourage people to write up their questions and findings, I'd like to suggest finding WWI records and relatives as a topic challenge.
