So this is interesting.

Batch [M9NP-2ZR] has one name listed twice. Bennie C Moree is listed in the left column and the right column.

Do I just index his name once?

    If they have different Service Numbers (located to the right of each man) or have different Enlistment Dates, you will index both instances. If everything is an exact duplicate, you will only enter the first Bennie.
