We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

 The Military maintains extensive records and they will be able to provide you with a lot of information.
Go to the research links page and to the records page: http://www.rpadden.com/docs/rsrchlinks.htm
Click on the second link and download an SF180.
It takes a couple of months to get the information, but you can get quite a bit of data.
Regarding the 1973 fire-it will not affect your search. According to the goverment the records that were lost were Army from 1912-1960 and Air Force from 1947-1964. No other records were lost.
You can look at my Dad's records to get an idea of the detail you can get:
