LAC Service Files Digitization: December Update

As of 15 December 2015, 231,540 (217,062 last month) of 640,000 files are available online via Library and Archives Canada's Soldiers of the First World War: 1914–1918 database.
The latest box digitized is #3789 (#3121) and the surname Greenaway (Fitzpatrick).
At the recent accelerated rate digitization would be complete in 2 years and 4 months -- April 1918.

If you missed it read my reflections on visiting the digitization team at "Impressed by LAC's scanning of CEF Service Files."
