You should have been given Member 4 when you separated. Regardless, go to eBenefits; up at the top, under Manage, click on Documents and Records, then Military Personnel File. On the right, you will see several options; select Request Your OMPF Information and put in your email and check all of the boxes. Your request should be fulfilled quickly. Once you get the email, hit View Your Retrieved OMPDF Information and select which files you want, then click Display Selected Files at the bottom. Bingo.

Should be pretty painless, I just did the whole thing as I typed this. The page the site serves up with your files on it may be broken. If you are using Firefox and don't see the Display Selected Files button, right-click within the area that shows the files and do This Frame -> Open Frame in New Tab.

e: And it gives you DD-214 Service 2. Welp.

But based on your statement in reality the service 2 copy should be fine, guess I'll have to try to convince him of that.
Do this. It's the same thing.

The burn pit registry site actually works now, so make sure you do that if you've been exposed to any of that poo poo.

You can use it for whatever, doesn't need to be related to your service. Go on down to your local VA and register there. It meets the requirements for the ACA, but go get yourself decent healthcare elsewhere, also. VA healthcare, like everything else government-purchased, is really hit-or-miss... mostly miss.

That rep should also be a civilian; and not just a civilian, but a veteran; and not just a veteran, but a disabled veteran so that they a) give a poo poo and b) have a loving clue.
