This is the directory for the wiki: Camp Ritchie classes, an A–Z index of soldier articles, and other pages. New topic pages appear under Site pages once they are tagged [[Category:Ritchie Boys Wiki]]. Soldier biographies stay in the A–Z index rather than that list.

Class roster data (Classes 1–31 only). The class, section, and related roster fields for Classes 1–31 come from U.S. government training-roster records held by the National Archives. Camp Ritchie Museum, Inc. (also known as The Ritchie History Museum) digitized that material and made it available for this project. The underlying records are public-domain government information; the museum does not own the data. Please credit the museum as the digitization source when citing this roster. That dataset is separate from Dan Gross's research files and from material created by this wiki's maintainers. We have tried to catch errors, but mistakes and omissions remain possible; not every person who trained at Camp Ritchie appears in this data. On the original theritchieboys.com site, this material was a separate searchable class roster database. On this wiki it is integrated into soldier profiles, class pages, and related navigation. Attribution to the museum applies to that Classes 1–31 roster data (class/section assignments and related roster fields), not to biographies, photographs, research notes, timelines, or other content on the site. Broader limits on biographies, photographs, and other site content are explained on About the data.

Classes[edit | edit source]

Camp Ritchie trained numbered classes. Each link opens that class’s soldier roster (last-name headings A–Z). Counts show how many soldier pages are in the class.

Class 1 (44 P)

Class 10 (531 P)

Class 11 (461 P)

Class 12 (443 P)

Class 13 (528 P)

Class 14 (470 P)

Class 15 (392 P)

Class 16 (519 P)

Class 17 (570 P)

Teams[edit | edit source]

IPW teams from the class roster (for example IPW 69) and MII teams inferred from research notes (for example MII 439-G). A bare code such as 439-G is treated as that MII team. The full list is Category:Teams.
