Veterans may shop online at the PX
« on: November 13, 2017, 10:13:21 PM »

Just came across this info ----

https://www.shopmyexchange.com/veterans

Can't verify it yet.
Looking for my discharge papers - since they seem to have no record of me ever being in the Army. Maybe I wasn't?

But then : who's the dark brown, skinny kid standing on the Huey skid, with the pitiful mustache, in the pix my mom has?

Found 26 copies of the same orders transferring me from U.S.Army Medical Command RVN to Ft Lewis WA - and my medical records (I gave myself the separation physical) - so my DD214 is around somewhere, not that anyone in my life has ever asked for it.

Wouldn't mind being that skinny again...
Turned around too fast in my stateside civies - and had my pants on backwards. That skinny.

And, I'm feeling a little peculiar.

I signed up this week. I also signed up for year round (not just special holidays) 10% veterans discount at Lowes. If you have misplaced your DD214, you can go to the nearest VA Affairs office and they can request a copy for you, or I believe you can now request it online yourself. Took awhile to find mine, but I finally did. I actually have two separation dates....one from active duty and one from the Army Reserve. The only date that worked was my active duty discharge date.
