I live 5 blocks from the Military Record Center. There was a huge fire there several years ago. In some cases up to 85% of the records were destroyed. This fire hit the WWll Veterans particularly hard. I have worked for years to put my Dad's record together with very little luck. And yes, I've tried all the mentioned places. No luck. I've also involved my Congressman and Senator. No luck. Many veterans will be very disappointed to find out that their records simply no longer exist.
