EBenefits.gov is the VA web portal for all of your veteran's information. You should try to get a premium account which will allow full access to all your military records. I was able to provide sufficient proof of ID online.

With that account you can request anything from your service records. With the request the website contacts your service and they upload the records, usually within a couple hours. That includes DD-214s.

I think that is the easiest way.

Go to archives.gov. or to the following

https://www.archives.gov/st-louis/military-personnel/dd-214.html

DD Form 214, Discharge Papers and Separation Documents

A Report of Separation is generally issued when a service member performs active duty or at least 90 consecutive days of active duty training. The Report of Separation contains information normally needed to verify military service for benefits, retirement, employment and membership in veterans’ organizations. Information shown on the Report of Separation may include the service member’s:

Date and place of entry into active duty

Home address at time of entry

Date and place of release from active duty

Home address after separation

Last duty assignment and rank

Military job specialty

Military education

Decorations, medals, badges, citations and campaign awards received

Total creditable service

You are welcome.
