Morning Reports
Day by day
Each company’s daily report: who joined, who was wounded, missing or killed, and where the unit was that day.
Free for everyone until January 1, 2027. Almost everything stays free after that.
Early-bird offer
Find the record behind the name.
Search the U.S. Army’s own Second World War records by service number or by name. Every result points to the original document at the National Archives.
A service number on its own is enough; a name helps when the number is unknown or was misread. Searching is free. Opening a record needs a free account.
Searches 9.2 million enlistment records, 6.5 million hospital admission cards, 143,000 POW records and the Morning Reports.
Searching every collection…
Four collections, searched at once
Each answer is a real record from the National Archives, shown with where it comes from, so you can check it yourself.
Enlistment records
9.2 million records
When and where a man joined the Army, his serial number, branch and grade, and the civilian life he came from.
Hospital admission cards
6.5 million cards
Wounds, injuries and illnesses as the Army Medical Department recorded them, from admission to discharge.
Prisoners of war
143,000 records
Americans held prisoner: where they were captured, the camp that held them, and whether they came home.

Traced to the record, not retold from it
The Accounted is built by an independent historian in the Netherlands, directly from Morning Reports, after-action reports, Graves Registration burial records and other holdings of the U.S. National Archives. Not from secondhand accounts, and not from guesswork. It documents American soldiers across infantry and airborne divisions that fought through Normandy and beyond, with unit movements traced day by day. The database keeps growing.
Genealogy platforms have done real work digitizing military records, and placed most of it behind a paywall. The Accounted is the free alternative for the core of what matters: finding a name, and seeing the record behind it.
