journalctl log disappear?
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP

Service is still active:
systemctl -l status foo.service
● foo.service - My Foo service
Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/foo.service; static; vendor preset: disabled)
Active: activating (start) since Fri 2019-01-18 00:08:45 EST; 18h ago
Main PID: 29032 (bash)
CGroup: /system.slice/foo.service
├─ 4159 ssh: /root/....
This morning I was able to tail the logs with -f -u foo.service. But now I see this instead:
sudo journalctl -u foo.service
-- No entries --
sudo journalctl -f -u foo.service
-- Logs begin at Wed 2019-01-16 10:18:52 EST. --
I have another service (well, a timer to be exact) completed and log is also unavailable now.
How do I view old logs? I've tried using --since yesterday and _PID= for example, and it only returns to me system logs.

How have you proven that any journal entries at all prior to Wednesday even exist any more? How have you determined where your journal has rotated to?

@JdeBP that's part of my question I am guessing: it seems like default on CentOS is saving to /run/log which according to some thread here it's volatile and not persistent.
