records request

[Al329]

Sorry this might be a simple question ...

I requested a copy of my medical records from the national archives. Waited three months for a letter saying they don't have them.

I don't have a copy and this is my first time at a VA claim.

So question, what happens if they don't have a copy of my records? I would that affect any claims?

ETS'ed from Army in 97.

Thanks!

you might try requesting your records  at your last duty station or from your old Unit, also request your C-file   most of your records will be in it  or should  but not always...you won't know until you get your C-File And search it  .....> its a lot easier now that they are on CD .

Also you might trying email this lady 

MaryAnn.Wentzel1@va.gov   request your C-file  and any and all records she can get you STRs /Military Medical Records

But Most of your Military Records you should get at the St Louis Records Personal Center....send another request to them.
