People occasionally post here asking how to obtain either their own DD214 or the records of their ex-military kin. Just came across these links which may help.

Good to know. Remember the DD214 was first used aroung 1950-ish and your WWII ancestors would have been discharged with as per Wikipedia:
Quote:

"WD AGO" (War Department Adjutant General's Office) or NAVPERS (Naval Personnel) discharge documents: NAVPERS-553 NOTICE OF SEPARATION FROM THE U.S. NAVAL SERVICE.
