Do I need high school transcript to transfer to the university?

I graduated a community college 2 years ago n thinking about going back to college in the US. I'm wondering if I need a high school transcript when I transfer to the university. I graduated from high school in Japan n attended community college in the US as an international student. I asked the high school I attended n they said they only keep student's records for 5 years so they cannot issue my transcript but they can issue diploma. Do all the universities require high school transcript for transfer students?Do I need high school transcript to transfer to the university?
I think all you will need is your comm. college transcript.
