Dear Mr. Hamilton,
Thank you for posting your request on History Hub!
National Personnel Records Center (NPRC) is the only source of Vietnam-era Official Military Personnel Files (OMPFs). Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the NPRC is closed except for emergencies. Currently, NPRC will continue servicing requests ONLY associated with medical treatments, burials, and homeless veterans seeking admittance to a homeless shelter. If your request is urgent, please see Emergency Requests and Deadlines and resubmit your request using the instructions given there. Otherwise, please be patient and wait until public health conditions permit NPRC to resume servicing non-emergency requests. We can not provide any estimates on when the request you have submitted will be fulfilled. Please check archives.gov/veterans for updates to the NPRC operating hours and status. We apologize for any inconvenience.
We hope this is helpful

Dear Mr. Hamilton,
Thank you for posting your follow-up request on History Hub!
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the National Personnel Records Center is not currently processing requests for the purposes of headstone applications. We will continue servicing requests associated with medical treatments, burials, and homeless veterans seeking admittance to a homeless shelter. Non-emergency requests will not be serviced until operations can resume safely. Please refrain from submitting your request until we return to pre-COVID-19 staffing levels. We appreciate your patience in these uncertain times.
More information regarding the NPRC’s Operating Status can be found at https://www.archives.gov/veterans/military-service-records-0 .
We hope this information is helpful.
Sincerely,
Holly Rivet
