Very possibly so.

One way to understand military archives is as a giant safety value for
people who need a CYA vehicle.  You know nobody is going to do anything
different, but you have to register something....  In another day, you'd
burn incense to the gods, but in the modern militarized state, you can write
a report and file it.  People think it's about making a point "for the
record," but the better the point, the more deeply it will be buried.

It's archaeological work in some ways....
