BURP! THEN SLEEP!
Shortly before being released in 1968, I was assigned to the Company Office at Camp Pendleton.......I had the thrill of typing my very own DD-214.
I MEAN Texas Roadhouse!
5.56mm
Ignore the negative reviews -- it appears there was a SNAFU offering this for free last year, and the negative comments all refer to that (check the dates).
My local Lowe’s gives me the 10% discount every day. I still carry my 36 year old inactive reserve ID card. It’s still recognizably me, plus it has thumbprints if anybody got really fussy.
U.S.C.G. 1971-1975
(P.S. The local Home Depot does NOT do this!)
Knotts Berry Farm, Anahiem, CA - Nov 1st through Thanksgiving. Show military ID or DD214, free admission for you and a guest plus up to 6 tickets at $16 each.
Don't know about the other services, but the USAF abandoned service numbers in about 1966 in favor of SSAN's.

get your head busted at an OWS rally and you’ll get your automatic veteran status with MSM seal of authenticity.
uh oh...that was a mistake to post the DD214...
...Obama will be scanning it, swapping out his name, plugging in Hawaii as his birthplace, adding one of his various SS numbers...and declaring he did a stint in the Army. :-)
(BTW...thank you for your service!)
I took my DD214 to Applebee’s, but they didn’t look at it, my squadron ball cap was sufficient for them. They were too swamped to check.
That's not my DD 214!
They go to Hooters for the great foresails and rudders
I seldom finish the month with more than a dollar or two left. If I can contribute ten dollars a month then anyone can. This forum is one of a few almost sane harbors in an insane world. Please help pay for our megaphone, put your money where your mouth is.
Respectfully
Thank you for the reinforcements. It’s very nice of you.
Ding Ding Ding! We have a winner. I did not want to give that secret away. But you are right. So, do homeless have SSN’s that they can remember?
Bump!
Semper rude!
