Request Copies of Military Personnel Records
Welcome to our online military personnel records request system. Use our system
to create a customized order form to request information from your, or your
relative's, military personnel records. You may use this system if you are:
A military veteran, or Next of kin of a deceased, former member of the military
The next of kin can be any of the following: surviving spouse that has not
remarried, father, mother, son, daughter, sister, or brother. If you are not the
veteran or next of kin, you must complete the
Standard Form 180 (SF 180).
See
Access to Military Records by the General Public for more details.
How to Initiate a Request for Military Personnel Records:
Click on the
"Request Military Records" button below to start. This will launch a separate
window.
Enter the required information in the system to create your customized request
form. There are 4 steps that you need to navigate. The system will guide you
through the steps and tell you exactly which step you are on.
Print, sign and date the signature verification area of your customized form. If
you don't have a printer, have a pen and paper handy and we will guide you
through the process. This is important because the Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C.
552a) requires that all requests for records and information be submitted in
writing.
Each request must be signed and dated by the veteran or next of kin.
Mail or fax your signature verification form to us, and we will process your
request. You must do this within the first 20 days of entering your request, or
your request will be removed from our system.
