So mr stolen valor is telling everyone his DD214 is sealed for 100 years by orders of the pentagon cuz all his black ops. I smell bullshit or a chapter case ,Now dude is my age 53 and in the 80s. Nothing was going on except for Central America that we was the SF communities baby all that force multiplier shit.
So I started telling the fellas about the Battle of LaGuardia it was one big shit show that went sideways. The air force fucked up dropped us the 325th PIR to close to the British ramparts. on the bright side we didnt have to hump as far to storm the ramparts. It was shit on the Dz mister Ed one of our platoon horse had a broken leg fucking riggers.
Me i trying to find my crickets not clicker not the modern ones the boys used in 44 on D-day my airborne brethren no we had actual crickets so we could all hook up in the dark and confusion . And I said yup 0200 in morning Im looking for my crickets SFC Wilbur is crying cuz he has to put PFC mister Ed down no slam on SFC Wilbur shedding tears we all loved PFC ED he was all heart AIRBORNE . Mass confusion men I told em having coffee in break room but hey we took the airfield, split the runway in 2 and started bringing in the legs so they could move off and engage the British.

He asked what happened to mister Ed , I said marine Corp ate his bloated carcass I heard on there way out to the ships.

(271 posts)A DD-214 gives very limited knowledge about what you did in the military. My DD 214 shows that I studied Russian at the Defense Language Institute but it does not show what schooling I had at Fort Meade. I can't tell you what I studied at Fort Meade or for what government department but if you look at what units and government buildings are at Fort Meade it is pretty easy to tell. A person's records can be flagged mine was flagged on October 8, 1964, and is still flagged. Subject: Restriction of Assignment and Travel of Personnel Having Access to Special Intelligence. Basically, which I already knew before enlisting I could not be deployed to Vietnam or any war zone.

(767 posts)Over 20 years after my discharge; I had know I was missing all the military awards on my DD 214. When I contacted records I was given a corrected DD 214 and a few military awards I did not know my group had been awarded. The DD 214 is VERY plain and does not cover secrets. I only had a "Q" for over 30 years.
