it depends on where you were born at, on base or in a private hospital?
on base? no big deal contact the base, they will direct you to records and furnish the birth cert.
private hospital? contact the city were you are born at. the registrar's office (standesamt) will send you a copy of it.

Turnaround Time
Most consular vital records must be retrieved from off-site repositories, including the National Archives. Thus, the time it takes varies greatly based on the type of record and date of occurrence, making it difficult to give a definite timeframe. However, in most cases, turnaround is four to eight weeks.
Expedited Service
Overnight delivery can save about ten days processing time, but there is no way to reduce the retrieval time. Overnight return via Federal Express is available for an additional $14.40 or the requester may provide a pre-paid airbill for the carrier of choice.
Additional Information
The Vital Records Section can be reached at (202) 955-0307.
