If the person is not your next of kin and you were discharges more than 62 years ago, they can order a copy of your military records.  The National Archives opens all records to the public 62 years after discharge.
If I want a copy of my military records , what should I prepare before starting my application?
you ll need a copy of your discharge or separation papers DD214
Are there other ways to get my military records aside from separation paper DD214?
