We frequently receive questions about how to obtain military records. Please note that we do not have direct access to official military records. While we do maintain some information related to individuals who were stationed at Camp Ritchie, these records are often limited, and in many cases, families may already possess more detailed information than we do. However, we are often able to confirm whether an individual was at Camp Ritchie.
If you are seeking official military records, the following resource is typically your best option. Please keep in mind, however, that there is no guarantee records will be available. A significant number of records were lost in the 1973 fire at the National Personnel Records Center (NPRC) in St. Louis, which destroyed millions of Army and Air Force records from 1912 to 1964.
Please use the form below if you have questions about whether someone appears in Camp Ritchie materials on this wiki, or any other questions about the Ritchie Boys or this site.
