Jewish organizations publicized military service lists to rebut shirking accusations.

Evidence

The `Chronicle’ section of the Contemporary Jewish Record published page-long lists of the names and ranks of Jews taking part in the war in high positions and, as time went on, lists of those who had been killed in action. This was one of the defence measures taken against the prejudice which clearly existed, although it was hard to judge how widespread it was, that Jews were shirking military service while at the same time reaping the greatest benefits from the war. — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 1486
