  2. If there are corrections that need to be made to a Form DD214, you can visit this link for further instructions: https://www.archives.gov/veterans/military-service-records/correct-service-records.html
  3. Other forms, besides the Form DD214, that may be needed for enrollment and eligibility for various VA benefits are:
