but it just seems extremely odd to me that this Don Shipley guy just made a FOIA request that was processed in basically less than 24 hours...over MLK holiday weekend...and during a government shutdown.
That came straight from DU

My suspicion is that a DD 214 is not something that can be obtained by a member of the general public through FOIA.

Do you have a DD-214?
No?
Then I guess you'd better shut the frick up, then.

Meh. With the exception of SSN, the DD 214 does not contain much in the way of PII. Full name (an issue with the protestor), last address (it is mailed to if you are not present to sign). Pretty routine stuff. It lists dates of service, MOS or (for an officer) AOC held, schools, awards and decorations. Not sure how he got it though. Not sure what it would take to get one (I deal with active component Soldiers so I am not running to ground service information on them).

quote:I have never requested a DD-214 (I have no reason to). But I know PII. And I am not dumb enough to play around with my career when it comes to releasing information that is protected under the privacy act. I have a feeling that Don is getting his stuff from a good source and ensuring he does not break the law along the way.

If you can put up with the cringe factor (his stuff is brutal), he has some pretty entertaining videos outing people claiming to be a former SEAL. He is scary good at what he does (and this is from someone who caught two people for stolen valor and had both of them were reduced to E1 - the first an E7 and the second an E8).

There are more than 70 million former military records for veterans stored at the National Personnel Records Center in St. Louis, Missouri. The records are available to the public through the Freedom of Information Act and the Privacy Act.
The general public can access military personnel records by completing Standard Form 180. Some of the information that must be given includes the name of the veteran, the service number or Social Security number, the branch of service, the date(s) of service and the date of birth. It has been our experience that the dates of service are helpful but not necessary.
The completed form can be sent via mail or fax to the records center. Although more detailed information is available to next of kin and other authorized parties, only a limited amount of information can be released to the general public. Typically, the information released includes rank, dates of services and where the individual in question was stationed.
Response time varies, but it has been our experience that requests are typically returned within 10 business days. LINK
