    DD-214 for Army Reservists?

      Hi All, I lost my mom last month. She was a Reservist in the Army for 18 years. She was never active duty. I was told to find her DD-214 and it couldn't be found so now I'm wondering if Reservists even have burial benefits? If so, where do I start? I've been chasing this DD-214 for a month and now I don't know what to do.

       

      Thanks for your help!

          Chelsea,

           

          I believe that Reserve members typically do not get DD 214s unless they had 90days or more on active duty. But here is what I would recommend doing is contacting the following. I would try all three numbers. Tell them what you are seeking. Your mother's records my still be in IPERMs and have not been transferred to the NPRC it is worth looking into. They should assist you also may want to talk with Casualty and Mortuary Affairs dont have the number but maybe they could help you.
