Mary, A researcher on another list had very good luck when she mailed away for records. This was what she said: here is where I sent for the records. I did fill out a form on the internet first. they gave me a file number to use and a form to send to them. on this web site you should find everything you need to know. http://www.chinfo.navy.mil/navpalib/questions/records.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---- Visit: New Alternative Health Web Site and Store <www.geocities.com/ivorytowerinstitute/index.html> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ----- > Date: Mon, 3 Jan 2005 13:03:26 -0600 > From: "Mary Hart" <mfhart@grm.net> > To: KYLAUREL-L@rootsweb.com > Subject: NEED SOME HELP, PLEASE > > Could someone help me get started looking for the service records of a World > War II Navy veteran.
