You can go to www.archives.gov and request a copy of your military records through there.

If you were in the Army, go to https://iperms.hrc.army.mil/. You will need a CAC card to log in. Your personnel offices should have been updating copies of your records here.

The final method, in case you can't find what you're looking through via those methods, is to go this route (copied from about.com):


Requesting Copies of Military Medical Records

Clinical and medical treatment records are filed at the National Personnel Records Center by the name of the facility which last had responsibility for the records. Therefore, in order to request information from medical records, you must provide the following information:


NAME OF THE LAST FACILITY WHICH HAD RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE TREATMENT RECORD. Usually this is the last facility at which treatment was provided.
The YEAR and the TYPE OF TREATMENT (inpatient, outpatient, dental, mental health, etc.) If you need copies of specific records, please be sure to state the type of illness, injury, or treatment involved.
The patient's FULL NAME used during treatment
The patient's SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER and STATUS during treatment [military, retiree, dependent of military, federal employee, dependent, or other (specify)].
BRANCH OF SERVICE and SPONSOR'S SERVICE NUMBER or SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER (if the former patient is/was a dependent).

You should provide as much information as possible. It may not be possible to locate a record if important identifying information is missing. For medical records of separated/retired military personnel and NAVY/Marine Corps dependents, send your request to : National Personnel Records Center
Military Personnel Records
9700 Page Avenue
St. Louis, MO 63132-5100


For medical records of Air Force, Coast Guard, or Army Dependents, send requests to:
National Personnel Records Center
Civilian Personnel Records
111 Winnebago Street
St. Louis, MO 63118-4126


Veterans who plan to file a claim for medical benefits with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) do not need to request a copy of their military health record from the National Personnel Records Center. When you file a VA claim, the Department of Veterans Affairs will request the record automatically, as part of the claims process.
Generally there is no charge for military personnel and health record information provided to veterans, next-of-kin, and authorized representatives. If your request involves a service fee, you will be notified as soon as that determination is made.

I saw all of that and when the va requests the medical file does usually come with everything including the digital records cause it seems like the scans they did on me is gone like it never happened
