Les,

Try the United States National Archives and Records Administration -
Regional Records Services at URL: http://www.nara.gov/regional/mpr.html
It helps in locating personnel records to have the army serial number of
the person whose records you seek.

You should also search the State archives in the state where your ancestor
enlisted.

If your ancestor was killed or died in service, you could try:

the American Battle Monuments Commission at URL: Http://www.abmc.gov/abmc4.htm

The World War I Honor Roll at URL:
http://www.americanwardead.com/searchw.htm this seems to be the nearest
thing the US seems to have to the Commonwealth War Graves Commission "Debt
of Honour" Register.

Also the Civilian Draft Registrations at URL: http://data.ancestry.com

Yours aye,
