Soft launch: Soldier biographies and research notes vary in completeness. Prefer class-roster, NARA, newspapers, and other cited sources for contested facts — treat Research notes as leads, not settled history. Anyone can correct a page; contact us with questions.

Preview

Class roster data (Classes 1–31 only). The class, section, and related roster fields for Classes 1–31 were supplied by Camp Ritchie Museum, Inc. (also known as The Ritchie History Museum). 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—but the museum's rights apply only 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.


The Classes 1–31 roster data is copyright Camp Ritchie Museum, Inc. It should not be reproduced, stored in, or introduced into a retrieval system, or transmitted, in any form or by any means (electronic, digital, mechanical, photocopying, recording or otherwise) without prior written permission. Broader limits on biographies, photographs, and other site content are explained on About the data.
