British Army WWI Service Records, 1914-1920.
A WW II bombing raid on the War Office in London destroyed over half of its 6.5 million records. Surviving both fire and water damage, these records came to be known as the Burnt Documents, preserving 2.5 million of the approximately 5 million names of the men that served in the British Army during WW I. If you have British ancestors that served in WWI, this collection is worth a look.
