I don't understand this statement. If you are implying what I think you are, I will just keep my comments to myself on this one! 
Oh, sorry for the confusion. That I can't answer as I have never had to have a "certified" copy for anything. In every instance I have needed "a copy" of my DD214, just a photocopy has sufficed.G26ster wrote:I got all of my 4 or 5 DD214 copies from the gov't years ago.

I took my DD214 when my driver's license was up for renewal. Because I have a CDL, I am not able to renew through the mail anyway, so sorry, I can't accurately answer your original question, but when I went to do a change of address, they said they didn't need a copy again. My original CHL did not have it on there, but when I did a change of address for it, they automatically added it without asking.(glad they did btw)stash wrote:If anyone has done this, did you do it my mail or did you have to go to a drivers license office? I thought you could do it by mail, but all I can find is you have to go a DL office. It appears only out of state can do it by mail.
Not trying to be rude, but are you ashamed to be a veteran?Panzer Possum wrote:I'm glad it's not mandatory. I'm happier not having it on my licenses.
