Husky Ed,

Good luck on piecing your father’s records together. Many of the pre-fire (1973) records at the NPRC were burned. I know that my father’s were and I’ve found more of his records when my mother was moved to assisted living and I had to go through the house, than are at St. Louis. If you haven’t been to the NPRC site https://www.archives.gov/veterans/military-service-records . It also has a ‘fact sheet’ that explains which records were destroyed in the fire and which ones survived.

Thank you. Been to the site and have talked to the people there. They have been very helpful. My Father died in 90. And have been working on this since 95.

Have gotten over 200 pages from them so far. Just nothing about him being wounded in WWII and Korea. Though he was 100% combat disabled. ;-/
