UPGRADE OF A MILITARY DISCHARGE?


If you have come this page for advice on military discharge upgrades, please email us the following information.  Without this basic information we can't begin to give you an idea of your case.

[As a way to help reduce the costs to you, we have developed a self-help pamphlet which you can follow to submit your own petition.  This pamphlet is available by sending a check for $25.00 for an email copy in Word or Word-perfect format, or $30.00 for a CD disk copy in both Word and Word-perfect format.  We then offer reduced fee consultations once you have completed your pamphlet, but before submission.]

1.  Full name:

2.  Telephone contact information:

3.  Mailing address:

4.    Date of discharge, shown on DD 214?  If you do not have your DD 214, you can obtain it FREE when you submit an SF 180.  (There are some on-line sites that charge for this information, you can get your military record at no cost.)

5.    Date of Discharge.  This is very important because of the 15 year time limit.

6.    Service from which discharged?

7.    What is in Blocks 23 through 28 on your DD 214?

8.    Do you have your service record/jacket and your medical record?  If not, have you submitted an SF 180?

To get a copy of your military records, complete the SF-180, Request Pertaining to Military Records, (Fillable SF 180).  You can go to this link, type in the information while the form is on screen in your browser, and then print out a neatly typed form to be mailed!  YOU WILL NEED TO HAVE ADOBE ACROBAT READER installed on your computer.  http://www.adobe.com

9.    Do you have a copy of your discharge paperwork or court-martial record of trial?
