Nah dude, I worked in admin while I was processing out in 2007 and they for sure lost shit enough to prompt me to make a copy of my entire record while working there. The people who worked admin full-time told me to do it for my own sake because that was pretty common.
That was before everything was digital by default. Lots of records went missing for no good reason.
Out in 2011 and at any point I would have wanted it, I could have pulled it almost immediately.
But yes, like I said everyone needs to make and keep multiple copies because especially now you can't count on them retaining shit.
You could have pulled it almost immediately because we worked to digitize everything, i was part of that process, yeah.
But that’s not at all the case for someone processing out in 2006, or 2007, and beyond that i don't know.
