I've used a Military Service event, and would like to run a report of my military people. I'd like to be able to identify from the report when served (WWI, 1812, Civil War, etc), what branch they were in, if they were wounded or killed on the battlefield, and perhaps any honors received. This info may be in the Desc field or the Notes as I didn't have a well defined method worked out when I entered the info.
I expect I'm going to need to clean up my data to follow some sort of convention so that searches and/or report options will pick up what I want. I'm looking for advise and tips on how you would go about this - from the data entry side to producing the final output. This seems to me a job for custom tagging, but as Legacy only offers nine, I'm looking for a solution that I can reproduce as needed.
