He has had prostate cancer, kidney cancer and diabetes all of which i'm told he should get disability for.   He does get 10% disability for his ears I think but he isn't forthcoming with any other info.  There are pictures of him graduating parachute school and a document.  He says he was in the 101st Airborne and has the tattoo and pins showing the parachute.

what info will his DD214 give me if i can find it.   He's refusing to file any forms saying he doesn't want to give the VA more info.  I think he deserves to find out if he can get a larger disability.

Can anyone help me?  thanks in advance.

dd214 will show type of discharge, medals, duty station and deployments if they didnt screw it up - they missed many of my deployements during my outprocessing, luckily I had saved all my orders and was able to have them added before it was issued to me. Good luck.

if you can't find your husbands DD214 call 1-800-827-1000. That is the VA Toll Free Number for questions, forms, and advice; including DD214's.
