Question

i need to find form DD 214

Answer 1

I would contact the Seperation/Retirements section at your nearest installation. I know there is a website that you can request them from.

Answer 2

you can get a online form with instructions and send it in http://www.archives.gov/veterans/evetrecs/index.html This is a goverment site. Also you could go to the nearest military base see if they can get for you Its easy (call the personal office first)

Answer 3

Go to http://www.archives.gov/veterans/evetrecs/index.html

If you are a member of an American Legion post or VFW post they have all the forms also to obtain your DD214, your service records, etc. Website is your best bet though.

Answer 4

you have 2 copies of DD214...the long and short copy...you should be able to acquire a short copy easily (call your nearest military installation personell office)...however the long copy is LITERALLY an act of congress. You have to request them through some Congressional committee

Answer 5

You can contact you local Veterans' Affairs Office to get the necessary documents to get copies of your DD214.
