OMPF Archival record - discharge date of 1964 or prior*

These archival records are available to the public.

 OMPF Federal (non-archival) record - discharge date of 1961 or after* 

These non-archival records are maintained under the Federal Records Center program and are subject to access restrictions. Only the military veteran

or the next-of-kin, defined as an un-remarried widow or widower, son, daughter, father, mother, brother, sister, or grandchild,

or an authorized representative with written permission from the veteran or next-of-kin may access these records,.

Please note that records are transferred to the National Archives and become archival 62 years after the service member’s separation from the military. For example, in 2026, records from 1964 and earlier will be considered archival.

We are among the few researchers worldwide who can accurately reconstruct US Army, Army Air Forces, and Air Force personnel files lost in the 1973 National Personnel Records Center fire in St. Louis. Our work enables the NPRC to issue a Certificate of Service when the original DD-214 was destroyed.

We provide personnel tracking in Europe and the Pacific, with access to all available German and Japanese records.

Our services include locating surviving family members, managing POW and MIA records, and processing captured German documents.

We also provide peacetime military records and support for Atomic Veteran certification.

We research German military records at the Bundesarchiv in Germany.

Global now provides customized research and tours of World War II European battlefields.

Each tour is tailored to a veteran’s service record, creating a meaningful experience for families and descendants.

Our tours include key sites from Normandy, Sicily, and Italy, through Germany, Luxembourg, Belgium, and the Netherlands, and extend to the Alps in Germany, Austria, and the Czech Republic.

We use records from the U.S. National Archives and the German Bundesarchiv Militärarchiv in Freiburg to provide insights into WWII battles from both Allied and Axis perspectives.
