Leads me to believe that my husband's medical records showed things the government does not want to pay for.
Yep - my records were missed in the fire but my late Dad’s weren’t. He called them back saying that he had hard copy of everything in them, which is why I now have hard copy of everything I was ever sent.
Yeah, now that everything is on computers, it's safe from harm, and we can just forget about it.

When I retired from the AF I made sure I had copies of my service record and all of my medical records. Unfortunately, my active enlisted Marine Corps records had been sent to the personnel records center just before the fire date and I haven’t been able to track them down. My records shouldn’t have been destroyed but in trying to get the records to add to my father’s genealogy records I believe they are gone. He was WWII and called back for Korea. They were probably included in the records that were destroyed since his name begins with an S.
I almost lost a pending sale with a VA Loan because of that fire.
He came home from Vietnam practically deaf and has had no luck since. They said he had never been in combat. He finally went to the VA in a neighboring state, he had found an advocate and they were able to get him in there. They reconstructed his service by the papers he had along with news clippings from the local paper.
Illegal aliens go to the front of the line. Americans and Veterans are not worth consideration. All of those socialist, American-hating hippies who spit on Veterans who were returning from VietNam, along with their corrupted offspring, are now in charge, like bill, hillary, obama, kerry, and ayers to name a few. Maybe the generals should have left some troops at home to clean out the leftist rat’s nests that were building up here. Now, all of the Veterans from wars since have to pay the price, again.
Mine were among those lost. However, I was able to show hospitalization from Company Morning Reports which were held at another location. My Rep helped me out to get them retrieved.
The only reason I have my grandfather’s Army records (1903-1912) is because a copy was added to his Marine records (1912-1922) which survived. Of course, his later Army records (1941-1947) were destroyed in the St. Louis fire, but I know where he was most of the time (Japanese POW camps).
The fire? Oh, you mean Operation Save the Careers of Every Democrat Who Came of Age in the Vietnam Era?
If he got PTSD in Saigon it was the: So many, So little time syndrome.
