Requests can be made by veterans or their next of kin and should be made on a government form that is called the Standard Form 180. It provides information about the service history of the veteran and the specifics of the request being made. The form must be submitted to the appropriate Military Records Center. Assistance in obtaining records or medals can be provided by Veterans Service Organizations such as the VFW, American Legion, DAV, VVA, etc. and local and state veterans agencies.

A maximum of 5 records can be requested in one transaction. However, the application does not have any limitation on the number of transactions made in a day.

Once the data controller has all the relevant information and fee where relevant, they should comply with the request promptly and within 21 days, where the record has been added to in the last 40 days, and within 40 days otherwise.

Generally this is possible under both federal and state public records laws, as long as the agency is not claiming that an exemption to disclosure applies to the information you seek.
