It seems to me that Obama has some explaining to do. According to his genealogy records his great uncle is Charles W. Payne, who's father was born & died in Johnson county Kansas, therefore we can reasonable assume Charles was still living with his father at 18 years of age when he enlisted, and his enlistment board would definitely have been Wyandotte county. Below is part of a monster table from the Kansas Historical Society on WWII veterans. http://www.kshs.org/genealogists/military/wwiiveteransresults.php?page=421&branch=N
| Payne, Charles T. | Enlisted 13 December 1942, Navy | 3427439 | Unregistered | Kansas City, Wyandotte Co. (Board # 4) | |
| Payne, Charles W. | Enlisted 10 November 1942, Navy | 6293977 | Registered, order # 12017 | Kansas City, Wyandotte Co. (Board # 4) | |
| Payne, Charles W. | Enlisted , Navy | 6287657 | Registered, order # 11111 | Hutchinson, Reno Co. (Board # 3) |
So it appears that his great uncle was in the Navy and that makes his story nose-stretched even futher.
It was my great uncle, not my uncle as I claimed. It was Buchenwald not Auschwitz as I claimed and he was in the Navy not in the Army as I claimed. I also search Army enlistment and induction records and there is no Charles W Payne.
