Richard's draft card is difficult to read, but it looks like:
Richard Millar Livingston, born Winthrop?, Arkansas, March 20, 1896.  Natural Born.  He was a saw miller, Choctaw Lumber Co. in Bismark, Oklahoma.  Single.  There is a little more about him, if you are interested.

Thanks so much to you both for the info, I really appreciate your time.

I don't believe that Richard Millar is a relative unfortunately.

I'll contact some military websites and see if I can find somebody who can explain how Thomas came about fighting for the US.  I'm very intrigued!

Take care
