Hi,

 

The following is from Service records : Connecticut men and women in the armed forces of the United States during World War, 1917-1920.

Even though this has been resolved, I'd like to add that I've seen soldiers with serial numbers in the 4 million range (4 XXX XXX) sent overseas. It's hard to tell with just a serial number if a man went overseas. Maybe the only exception would be those in the Student Army Training Corps whose numbers were in the 5 million range.
