who was questioned concern-ing military status,and the dateof service or of the interviewupon which the non-military af-fidavit was based.  \nA notary may,however,keep con-formed copies of all such affidavitsand this will meet the record-keepingrequirement.  \nThe record or the copies of the affi-davits must be kept for not less thanthree years.  \nThe new rule was promulgated be-cause it came to the attention of theUnited States Attorney for the South-ern District of New York that manyof these affidavits have been notarizedwithout the affiant personally appear-ing before the notary and being sworn.  \n#   \"Non-Military Affidavits\"  \n\nThe Soldier's and Sailor's Civil Re-lief Act of 1940(50U.S.Code Appen-dix §520)provides that,generally,aplaintiff may not enter a default judg-ment
