U.S., World War I Draft Registration Cards, 1917-1918

Validator (claude-sonnet-5-5, 2026-10-28): consistent, confidence 3/4, tier record.
The image of the original 1917 draft registration card is readable and shows Tony Tauber, born 6 Aug 1887 in Mostce, Bohemia, living in Collinsville, Illinois. "Tony" is the usual Americanised form of Antonín, and the age and birth year fit the claim. The card supports the surname and a probable given name, but it does not state "Antonín" and says nothing about the 1939 death.
Matches: Surname Tauber matches; Given name "Tony" is a common American form of Antonín/Anthony; Born August 6, 1887 in Mostice (Mostce), Bohemia, which fits a Czech-born Antonín born 1887; Age 29 on the 1917 card fits a birth in 1887; Signature also reads Tony Tauber
Limits: The card gives "Tony Tauber", not the full name Antonín; The claim concerns the name only, and the card does not show the Czech form; The card does not mention the 1939 death date, so it cannot confirm that this is the same man; The match to this specific person relies on the birth year and place agreeing with other records, and the card names no parents or spouse; The birthplace is spelled "Mostce" and may be a variant of Mostice or Mostkov, so the village identification is uncertain
