   LONDON  (Reuters)  - Computer discs containing the personal records of
   thousands of serving and former RAF staff have gone missing from an air
   force base, the Defence Ministry said on Friday.

   Police are investigating the suspected theft of three portable hard disc
   drives from the Service Personnel and Veterans Agency's offices at the
   Innsworth base in Gloucestershire.

   The  discs  contained  the  names, service numbers, dates of birth and
   assessment papers of thousands of RAF staff, and some may have included bank
   details.

   "We are taking this incident extremely seriously," the ministry said in a
   statement.
