How can I get a copy of my military records (discharge, medical, etc.)?
Most military records are stored at the National Personnel Records Center in St. Louis, Missouri. |
Visit the National Personnel Records Center website |
This is also an area where a congressional office can really help. If you are trying to get records from your military service, or that of a family member, feel free to contact my office. I will need your written permission to help with this issue. To make that easier, you can print out this Authorization Form, and fax or mail it to my Pittsburgh office. If you have any questions about this process or military records in general, you can contact my assistant for Veterans matters: Questions? Call my office at (412) 344-5583. |
How can I get the medals I was awarded during my service but never received?
Military medals are also an issue handled primarily through the National Personnel Records Center in St. Louis. In most cases, it is faster to get medals if you work through a congressional office. If you are owed medals from your service, just fill out this Authorization Form and fax or mail it to my Pittsburgh office. Once I receive this information from you, I will be back in touch with you regarding any other paperwork that might be required to send the request to the proper officials. Questions? Call my office.
