USAF-Air Force DD214
In most cases we can provide you with Official Copies of your United States Air Force DD214 within 5 business days or less.
There are a few exceptions to the 5 business day turnaround. Air National Guard (ANG) records are not archived in the same way as Regular Air Force Records. They can take longer to access. Pre-1970 USAF DD214’s are located by reference to the service member’s Air Force Serial Number (dog-tag number). If you do not have this number, the process may be slowed down while we search for the Serial Number as a preliminary step.
Many USAF personnel files for service between 1915 and 1964 were damaged or destroyed in the 1973 fire at the National Archives storage facility in St. Louis, Missouri. These records can be considerably slower to access, and in some cases, if the entire Military Personnel File was destroyed, they can be impossible to expedite. If this is the case, we will process a full refund, minus our search fee. For more information on the 1973 fire, you can check out the entry on our FAQ page.
The Air Force began digitizing military personnel files in 2004. If you served in the USAF after 2004, you may have a digital DD214. Digital copies can usually be accessed within 1-2 business days.
