You can get a copy of your discharge paperwork three ways. The Maine Bureau of Veterans’ Services keeps DD214s and equivalents for veterans who were Maine residents when they entered the U.S. Armed Forces. If you entered from another state, the National Association of State Directors of Veterans Affairs website lists that state’s director. The National Archives and Records Administration may also hold your records.
Submit a completed Maine Bureau of Veterans’ Services intake form to one of the Veterans’ Services Offices listed at the bottom of the form.
The completed intake form, your identification, and whatever service details you have such as branch, service dates and service number.
