The image of the original WWI draft registration card is readable. It shows Peter Konecny, age 23, born June 28, 1893 in Mahren, Austria, living at 695 12th Street, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and single. It was registered June 5, 1917, so it supports both the residence claim and the marital-status note. Identity as Petr Pavel depends on the matching name, birth year and Moravian origin.
Matches: Registration card names Peter Konecny (signed "Peter Konecny"), matching Petr Pavel Konečný in an English form; Home address 695 12th, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, which matches the claimed place; Registration date June 5, 1917, within the claimed 1917–1918 range; Marital status is given as "single", matching the note; Date of birth June 28, 1893, with age 23, fits the 1893 birth year; Born in Mahren (Moravia), Austria, which fits a Czech/Moravian-born person
Limits: The card gives only "Peter", with no middle name Pavel, so identification rests on name, birth year and birthplace; The birth town is given only as Mahren (Moravia) with no specific village, so it cannot be tied to a particular family place; The card shows residence on one date, not the full 1917–1918 span; Milwaukee County is inferred from the city and the citation detail, not stated on the card
