Enlisted Record and Report of Separation
Among the most useful
records I have identified in researching a veteran's service is the Report
of Separation and Discharge. This record is packed with information
and dates to help recreate the primary elements of one's service,
including:
Date
and place of induction
Grade
upon separation
Military occupation and specialty
Battles
and campaigns
Decorations and citations
Dates
of overseas departure and return
Unit
from which separation occurred
This kind of record can be
requested here.
Note that a disastrous fire in 1973 destroyed upward of 18 million
official military personnel records at the National Personnel Records
Center, including many for Army and Air Force personnel. But don't
let that stop you from making the request anyhow! My father's record
looks like this:
