My Navy reserve and active duty records were destroyed by that fire. Fortunately, my own personnel files and discharge papers/data are still around. Other government organizations accept my data, yet Navy Bupers doesn’t accept that data.

Cal DMV is so screwed up. I have been recognized as a Vet on my last two driver’s licenses.

Yet Cal DMV does not consider that data, old passports and other older data for the new fly anywhere ID/Driver’s licenses.

So sorry to learn of your records being destroyed as well as the further insult of Cal DMV’s insult to your service.

Nothing worse than dealing with government bureaucrats, most of whom have never served their country. If they had, they might be more respectful.
