What is an officer’s equivalent of a DD-214? Is there any difference? I’ve often wondered.

The document is the same, but if you are transferred to another component, that is noted on the DD-214. In my case, I was transferred to the Retired List with subject to involuntary recall.

A DD-214 is a DD-214. Officers and enlisted alike are issued the form when they are discharged. It is simply titled
“Armed Forces of the United States
Report of Transfer or Discharge”

Mine has “NA” for Selective Service Number, SSBoard and date inducted. I was AFROTC, commissioned at graduation.

Keep it in a safe place.

Officers are issued DD 214s also upon release from active duty or retirement.
