First a DD214 is an official Defense Department form that describes thelength of a veterans service the characterization of their discharge theirrank at time of discharge any awards ribbons or commendations that theyhave earned and possibly mine is at home not on my person their last dutystation and particular unit to which they were assigned.Prior to at least 1995 the DD214 was a carbon copy from that the serviceperson got one of the copies not the physical original. Obviously such acopy would appear to actually be a copy not the original. It is entirelypossible that a civilian who is not familiar with the form could believe thatthey were seeing a fake form.Most service personnel take the authenticity of their DD214 EXTREMELYseriously.As for u201cprovingu201d that his DD214 is false youu2019re pretty much out of luck. As amember of the general public you can only get access to certain informationon the individualu2019s service record via FOIA request. See here Freedom ofInformation Act FOIA and The Privacy ActMy real question though is why are you so invested in proving this guy to bea liar What does his service record have to do with your life
