The record
Key: regular type = printed text; bold = handwritten or typed entries; [Stamp] = stamped text; shaded italic = transcriber's note. Spelling, capitalization, and punctuation follow the original.
[Transcriber's note: Image identifier printed at the top left of the scan: 4128633_01557. The scan shows the front of a different registrant's card (Aaron Milo Reitz, Brookville, Jefferson County) above and a card back below, rotated 90 degrees. On these microfilm images the back shown beneath each front belongs to the card filmed on the preceding image; this back follows image 4128633_01556, the front of Nickolas Reitter's card (file 06). The Reitz front is transcribed after the back for completeness.]

[Transcriber's note: This back (Quakertown board, Bucks County, registered April 27, 1942) fits Nickolas Reitter's Bucks County residence. It means the back printed on image 01556 (file 06; Pittsburgh board, 5 ft 5 in, 130 lb) belongs to the card filmed before his, not to him. The same offset applies to the backs on files 22 and 38.]
