Pennsylvania GOP Senate candidate Kathy Barnette is touting her military service on the campaign trail—but asked on Wednesday to provide basic details about that record, Barnette's campaign manager abruptly ended a phone call.
The incident is the latest in a series in which Barnette's campaign has rebuffed requests for her DD214, a standard form issued to service members when they leave the military. The form would show when Barnette served, under which branch, and the terms of her discharge.
Her failure to provide the form has raised questions from military veterans, including former Republican candidate and decorated combat veteran Sean Parnell, who dropped out of the Pennsylvania race in November.

Pennsylvania Ping!
Please ping me with articles of interest.
FReepmail me to be added to the list.
John F’n Kerry never produced an unredacted SF-180.
Why the double-standard?
This is not a DD214. https://t.co/V6l802WQ6F— Sean Parnell (@SeanParnellUSA) May 11, 2022
Unfortunately no. I have more questions than answers now.— Sean Parnell (@SeanParnellUSA) May 11, 2022
None of this is a DD214, which is the definitive document that establishes Military Service: what she did, where she went, and the True nature of her discharge. This further Confuses an incredibly Murky and Weird Résumé https://t.co/3OLEoAVz7o— Greg Kelly (@gregkellyusa) May 11, 2022
A candidate- even a demhole- doesn’t owe a mediawhore anything
I can’t quite read it. Essentially, what does it say?
This here is a matter of vetting a GOP candidate whose background is starting to look awfully odd.
This is not a DD214. https://t.co/V6l802WQ6F— Sean Parnell (@SeanParnellUSA) May 11, 2022
It’s not. Don’t get me wrong. I’m glad that she’s answering questions. But this isn’t a DD214— Sean Parnell (@SeanParnellUSA) May 11, 2022
It’s not— Sean Parnell (@SeanParnellUSA) May 11, 2022
Correct. This is only part of the picture though. Just sayin. 🤷🏻♂️— Sean Parnell (@SeanParnellUSA) May 11, 2022
Yes. I know exactly what it is. But Kathy has said she was in the **US Army** multiple times. I hear that and think active duty. Like you say above—You clearly delineate between Army/Navy, Guard and Reserves. She didn’t. So I assume there was active service somewhere.— Sean Parnell (@SeanParnellUSA) May 11, 2022
Well, she has said she was in the US Army for a decade. I hear that and I think active duty. Typically people specify reserves or guard like you did above.— Sean Parnell (@SeanParnellUSA) May 11, 2022
Look, we all have our candidates in a primary. I respect that 100%
She’s also said she was in for 10 years. This document doesn’t reflect that. There’s nothing about OCS on here.
Just saying, all of this is in her bio. Not unreasonable whatsoever to ask about it I don’t think.— Sean Parnell (@SeanParnellUSA) May 11, 2022
She said multiple times that she was in the US Army for a decade. That’s awesome. This document reflects 7 years in the guard/reserve. I assume there was an additional 3 years of active service and therefore a DD214 to accompany that time.
I also see nothing about OCS. 🤷🏻♂️— Sean Parnell (@SeanParnellUSA) May 11, 2022
I love my state. And my country. This senate seat is very important and so are these questions. I think they’re pretty entry level & asking simple questions isn’t evidence of some sinister agenda. I want our movement to succeed.— Sean Parnell (@SeanParnellUSA) May 11, 2022
Unfortunately no. I have more questions than answers now.— Sean Parnell (@SeanParnellUSA) May 11, 2022
It’s not on my end. Something doesn’t add up.
I hope I’m wrong. I’ve got no axe to grind. https://t.co/ubdGtAWktY— Sean Parnell (@SeanParnellUSA) May 11, 2022
Yep, the still running candidates are frightened of her and the DROP OUTS (I’m including you Sean Parnell) are jealous. So the long knives are out.
She said she was in the Army for 10 years.
I believe Kurt!!
I’m glad to hear that, that is nothing that she has to explain.
This whole thing is RIDICULOUS..instead of the in fighting, people, just vote for whoever the heck you want to..enough of the BS, we have a Senate seat to win in Nov this in fighting is NOT helping the cause..want to vote for Oz, fine, want to vote for Kathy, go ahead..geez, just vote for whoever you want to
You are changing no one on here.
F Oz, F McC.
Enjoy voting for a Turkish citizen, that served in the Turkish Amy, practices Sufism, and hangs with Oprah.
Looks good to me.
She did her time and did it honourably.
I’d trust her more than anybody in the current administration.
Army Reserve but the paperwork shown only gives an end date.
