How to get a dd214 when all records were destroyed in a 1973 fire?
Crystal,
You may get a "cobbled" reply and not exactly a copy of the DD214 per say. The Center will send you what they can come up with during their research. Unfortunately, my father's records were caught up in that fire as well. I had sent off a request back in the late 90's. I was sent a copy of what information they could retrieve at that time. I also reached out to the funeral home that handled my father's burial in 1993. They still had a copy of his discharge paperwork on file, but I don't think it was called a DD-214. If I can be of help please let me know.
Regards,
Kevin McGrath
