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

Camp Ritchie trained numbered classes. Each class page links to that class’s roster.

Soldiers A–Z

Articles are titled Surname, Given name (ASN). Pick a letter to open that slice of the roster. This page does not list every soldier.


Category:Soldiers by letter collects those letter lists. Category:Soldiers is the full roster (about 21,000 pages). Search if you already have a name or ASN.
