My father joined the Army Air Corps in January 1940. He was not enumerated with his family, and he tells me he might have been “on a train” during census-taking time! He was stationed at MacDill AFB in Tampa, which at the time was just an army airfield. It doesn’t seem to have its own institutional ED. I thought I identified the ED from a 1940 map, but only a few families show up at the airfield. Could some of our soldiers have missed being enumerated?
