I'm helping my dad with his claim for benefits. He served from 1949 to 1951. He filed a claimed for injuries he received while on active duty and requested a CP exam. Two months later he was denied without a CP exam and was told the record was void of his issues. I am wondering if his records were destroyed in the fire of '73'? Would the VA say the records are void if they were destroyed in the fire? Should he file an NOD next? I am grateful for any help.
