Please check spelling of town of birth. Card reads Prizrend, but think it is spelled Prizren and since these towns change names so much, just not sure. I typed it the way I think it should be spelled. Thank you.
Hello Kathleen! We could not confirm this soldier's place of birth, so the transcription has been updated to reflect what is written on the card. -MH
Hi! I just wanted to add a quick note for anyone who may come across this record, and have interest in the birth location. The most popular name is, in fact, Prizren (District); however, it is also known as Prizreni, and was at one time named Liria (according to wikipedia). Prizen District is located in Kosovo, Yugoslavia / Serbia.
