I recently received the Bi-monthly Returns for the Hospital Corps for David Nemetzky from 1906-1912 that are housed in the National Archives in Washington, D.C., from my researcher that I hired. These returns list the individuals that served at the different forts, camps and stations as well as notes on their service. They were able to find the following returns:
Fort Moultrie, South Carolina: Nov/Dec 1906 - Mar/Apr 1907
The returns that were found show when he arrived at Fort Moultire (Nov. 12, 1906) from Fort Morgan, Alabama, as well as being held over to make up time for his desertion (Jan. 21 - May 28, 1907). The notes from Mar/Apr 1907 and the return for May/June 1907 was not copied.
Fort Porter, New York: Mar/Apr 1909
This return shows his promotion to Private First Class (April 19, 1909). He served at Fort Porter from February 20, 1909 through June 1909. The returns for Jan/Feb 1909 & May/Jun 1909 were not copied.
Fort Howard, Maryland: July/Aug & Sept/Oct 1909
These returns show when he served at Fort Howard, Maryland. The notes for these returns were not copied.
Fort Wadsworth, New York: Mar/Apr - Nov/Dec 1911
The returns for his entire time at Fort Wadsworth in 1911 were found, but only notes from Sep/Oct & Nov/Dec 1911 were the only notes that were copied. Sep/Oct 1911 shows his promotion to Private First Class (Oct. 14, 1911) and his transfer to Manila, Philippines (Nov. 1911)
They didn't get the returns for Fort Morgan, Alabama (Mar/Apr - Nov-Dec 1906); Division Hospital, Manila, Philippines (Jan/Feb - May/Jun 1912) or Fort Wadsworth, New York (1909).
In addition to hiring a researcher and finding the above-listed returns (as well as showing that these - and other - returns are accessible at the National Archives in person), I also found the Hospital Corps returns for David Nemetzky at Tientsin, China in 1912. These returns are actually housed at College Park, Maryland. I reached out to the National Archives in Maryland and asked about these returns for David Nemetzky. They responded by providing me copies of the Hospital Corps returns for Tientsin, China for Jan/Feb through Sep/Oct 1912 (the return for Nov/Dec 1912 is available on Family Search).
I am planning to go out to the National Archives in Washington, D.C. next year to find the remaining Bi-Monthly Returns for the Hospital Corps for David Nemetzky, as well as the Bi-Monthly Returns for Company B, 12th Infantry Regiment. He served in this Regiment between June 1907 & February 1909. There is almost no information available online for this part of his military service and I am hoping that I can fill in the details of this part of his military service.
