    Said  Clarence G. Howland   was inducted into the service from the jurisdiction of the Local Board for Clayton County, Elkader, Iowa  on the  11th day of November, 1918.

 

    While this certificate discharges the person named herein from his present obligation to service in the Army, it does not operate as a permanent bar to his subsequent entrance into the military service.
