Is it safe to put his ID card here?

Yes. The account of the fire I heard from a valid source.   thank you

Is there a source for Mk2 grenade fuze gaskets?  I know that I could use a considerable number of them as over the years they seemed to get lost or broken.

I’m sorry, I don’t understand 

1973 was the year of the big fire at the records center. Many, many WW2 personnel records were destroyed including my dad’s. I try not to think about it because it really ticks me off. The good news is there are other ways to put together your dad’s history and there are many folks on the forum that can help you with that.
