girk and for anyone else following this. The only way to prove past military service is for you to know who I am (and my SSN) and then for me to post something EVERY service member gets upon discharge and the only way you can get one is upon discharge from military service, my DD-214.
Which is a document that shows among other things; my name, ssn, rank upon discharge, what type of discharge (honorable), every ribbon or medal I was ever awarded, last duty, address I was discharged to, years of active service, etc. Barring that, nothing you could post proves military service.
This document is what every discharged service member would need to produce if they ever wanted or needed to take advantage of any benefit of military service subsequent to their discharge (VA hospital, loans, education, etc.). Anyone who's ever served in the military knows in your last few days of service you can't wait to get your hands on your DD-214.
That's the only way you prove you were in the military. Someone relaying a rank, branch, duty location, etc. proves nothing but they may know or have looked up correlating information about such things. And in the context of this discussion with the other guy would have only served as the diversion that is has become to his 'failorama'. As we've seen countless times just in this thread even black and white proof means nothing to this guy. He must live in an anechoic chamber or something.
