Dear RobertBFletcherJr. 
 Thank you for posting your request on History Hub. 
 Individual medical reports of veterans who left the Navy before February 1994 are in the custody of NARA's National Personnel Records Center (NPRC) in St. Louis. Please complete a NA Form 13042 and mail it to the National Personnel Records Center, (Military Personnel Records), 1 Archives Drive, St. Louis, MO 63138-1002. 
 We hope this information is helpful.

Dear RobertBFletcherJr. 
 Apologies for the broken link. Instead you may submit a request for your medical records by mailing a completed GSA Standard Form 180 to NPRC. Veterans and next of kin of deceased veterans also may use eVetRecs to request records. See eVetRecs Help for instructions. If there is any information requested by the form that you do not know, you may omit it or provide estimates (such as for dates), but the more information you provide, the easier it will be to locate the correct file. 
 We hope this information is helpful.

The password is the request number. It should be in the subject line of the e-mail, or near the top of the e-mail, or both. 
 If you got the files downloaded, it's the same password you used to download them. 
 Just went through the same thing with my dad's records earlier this week.

Just a quick response. I hope I am understanding your question correctly. I had great difficulty getting the National Archives to reply to my requests for my Dad's WW II Coast Guard records. Not sure this would help but, I had to finally write to the Admiral to get the Archives to reply to me. About a year and a half of the NARA sending me out to all kinds of wrong places...did it feel intentional? It sure did. Thus, the Admiral. But in truth, not sure I ever received my Dad's complete records either. But I should think that the Admiral would be able to get that issue moving. Just a thought...
