In Reply to: DoD has missplaced my records... posted by sid on April 30, 2000 at 13:25:54:

My medical records were never lost, but at my last duty station almost everything about my numerous and sometimes serious injuries and illnesses was removed. I have copies, but the VA would not recognize those when I made my disability claim. What I recommend to soldiers now is to get notarized copies made, and make sure everything is included.
