Any veteran invested in our mission to advocate for the issues, needs, and benefits of women veterans is welcome to join Post 644. Veterans must show proof of eligibility by submitting a copy of their DD-214 (Certificate of Discharge from Active Duty) or a copy of their federal activation orders showing service under Title 10, subsection 672 or 12301. If you do not have your DD-214 or federal activation orders, please visit the National Personnel Records Center website at http://www.archives.gov/veterans/military-service-records/get-service-records.html to order your records online or to print out a paper request to be mailed.
