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.
In 1985, I flew in a UH-1H to deliver some unit personnel records to the records center in St. Louis. My Dad always urged me to save a hard copy of anything military related that pertained to my service. I still have my own self maintained service and medical records that I started as a cadet. One look at the hallways there jammed with pallets of records and documents spilling out on the floor, confirmed his warnings.
