Military Retirees Resource Page
This page is dedicated to all military retirees and their families. The intent is to provide as much information as possible regarding retirement benefits. It will start out with some links to web sites and any other information that I can gather. As always, I am very open to any input that you may have to offer. This will be a freeform page and like the main page it will change over time as I get better at it and respond to your input.

Get Your DD-214 On-line
The
National Personnel Records Center (NPRC) has provided the following web site for
veterans to gain access to their DD-214s online: http://vetrecs.archives.gov/
This may be particularly helpful when a veteran needs a copy of his DD-214 for
employment purposes. NPRC is working to make it easier for veterans with
computers and Internet access to obtain copies of documents from their military
files. Military veterans and the next of kin of deceased former military
members may now use a new online military personnel records system to request
documents. Other individuals with a need for documents must still complete the
Standard Form 180, which can be downloaded from the online web site. Because the
requester will be asked to supply all information essential for NPRC to process
the request, delays that normally occur when NPRC has to ask veterans for
additional information will be minimized. The new web-based application was
designed to provide better service on these requests by eliminating the records
center’s mailroom processing time.
