Another Question about Dates: US, Missouri, St. Louis—Military Records

Batch: M9NP-V9B

This batch has "Jd. 23rd" (or similar) next to each name. Am I correct to just use the roster date (from the previous image) instead of all these dates? Does "Jd." mean "Joined" as in when they joined the company, not when they enlisted?

Thank you in advance!

    Correct - “ jd “ date is not an enlistment date, so the roster date has priority over it.
