Key points
Introduction of a single, standard document called the “Certificate of Military Service” for all service members.
This certificate will replace existing discharge certificates, such as the DD-214 form.
Reserve members will receive updated certificates at key service milestones, like promotions or status changes.
The new document is intended to be accepted as proof of military service for veteran benefits.
