Are there any other resources to get my medical records from when I served in the Army from 1973 thru 1976?

I am trying to see if my minor disability received while serving qualifies me to establish SDVOSB status for my company. I am not having much success finding my medical records and was told there was a fire that impacted medical records stored during that timeframe. Are there any other sources available?

SGT Randy Rippin the fire happened in 1973. If they are blaming that for your records I'd call bullshit. Your records did not get there until 1976

Who told you all this? Have you tried working with DAV?
