Geoffrey Brooke & Lydia Cheung in @APEHR link military to birth records showing 1/3 of NZ soldiers 1899-1902 misrepresented their age. The young tended to overstate & older men understate age. There was no age heaping. Misreporting does not affect patterns of height by age. Useful analysis of incentives to misreport.
