Free access 9 november 04:59 to 13 november 04:59 GMT,
probably only for US WWI and WWII records.

records are free from November 8-12 11:59PM EST.

Go to: https://www.myheritage.com/research/category-3000/military

On the right hand side of the page that opens from the url above, see, in
Military Records" which gives you a list of the categories of military
records in the free access offer. Clicking on any of the categories will get
you to a search window for that collection. You can search all military
collections by using the search form on the center of the page.

When you put in a name and the results return a green "free" label will
appear next to the record that is included in the free access offer. If the
record is not available then an extract will appear. In the trial example I
did, I received some results with extracts only and others with both the
extract and the original record. To save the record to your computer right
click on your mouse and " click save image as". If it's an extract do a copy
and paste. If you have your tree on MyHeritage there is a "save record" that
you can use to affix to your tree. At the bottom of the page there is a
"cite this record" where you can copy the source information.

If you try to access the records that are not included in the free access
offer you will be invited to subscribe.

Just as I was forwarding that to some friends and cousins, a TV ad. from
Ancestry came on saying they're doing the same - I didn't get the
details, though thought I heard "'til Monday".
