question How to verify Desert Storm service not listed on my DD214?

[SilverVeteran]

What steps should I take to confirm my involvement in Desert Storm if it's not documented on my DD214? Any advice to help me get started would be really helpful.

Thanks, in advance!

Any personal awards, decorations, or ribbons while deployed?

Photos and buddy statements from those you served with are two options to explore.

Your Leave and Earnings Statement (LES) might reflect overseas hazardous duty pay, suggesting your service in the area during that time.

Having the South West Asia Service Medal on your DD-214 should be enough evidence.

By any chance, do you still have a hard copy of your orders?
