World War I (1914-1918)
- The Maine National Guard kept personnel records for all soldiers who entered the service under the National Guard during World War I. After the Guard was mobilized by the federal government in 1917, the State no longer kept soldiers' service files but did keep general records of those who served. This gallery features the Maine National Guard's records of soldiers who participated in World War I and a collection of documents about Maine's response to the explosion in Halifax, Novia Scotia.
Halifax Explosion
- On December 6, 1917, the city of Halifax, Nova Scotia was rocked by a massive explosion after two ships collided in the harbor. One of them, the SS Mont-Blanc, was packed with explosives, and the resulting conflagration killed nearly 2,000 people and injured thousands more. The State of Maine was quick to respond. The Archives holds many documents from the Adjutant General records which document the aid Maine provided Halifax.
