Allan is age 40 and unmarried. He is a veteran of WWI and his occupation is as an electrician in the navy yard

Text:

According to this draft registration the informant was his brother, so apparently Allan was not married at this time. He was unable to write his name, this could be because of an injury to his right hand as it is noted that he had lost his fourth finger up to the first joint.
The Draft Registration gives Allan's birth date as 6 Oct 1888
