Do you think it is a good idea?

I have over 300 pages of medical records from my time in the army. Is it a good idea to make a Digital copy of them and save the on a cd. If something like a fire or tornado should happen I would lose the paper form of my medical records. I can put the cd in my safe and pray it makes it through.

I am thinking about doing this will all of my military records, va records and my husbands military records.

I would also recommend getting a storgae box at the local bank to store the originals or paper copies of the originals in. The bank's vaults are usually required to be fire proof.

Yes it is always wise to have copies.

Most certainly do this.

I would store them in a safety deposit box rather than a fire box that can be thrown around and have the contents destroyed during a tornado.

That's what is happening with the records now anyway... makes them easier to store... I say go for it but still keep the hard copy

that is s really good idea. make sure you have them in different places like in a safe deposit box at the bank and or a lock box of your own

Yes, that is a good idea. I have several copies of my military and VA records, and I have colored postage, so it will be easy to search through the records for what medical problem I'm looking for.

You have given me an idea to make a Digital copy too. Thanks!

Start of a good idea. Password protect the discs and have a copy at a friends house. Dont forget to update them, w new software and media, so you dont end up with the equivalent of "8 track tape" back -up records.
