So wonderful for Rookies like me to engage with all that knowledge Has anyone tried to get military discharge papers while living outside of South Africa? Any advice?

SJ272 146 Report post Posted January 6, 2018 (edited) I don’t know about from NZ precisely, but the information for US green card applicants is usually very reliable, and this is what it says about military records.. is this what you have tried already? Military Records Available. ....(for ww2) Application must be made to the Chief of Staff, Personnel (War Records), P/B X281, Pretoria 0001. Full name, date of birth, and S.A. identity number and military number should be furnished. Persons who have served in the armed forces since World War II should write to the regiment to which they were attached, furnishing full name, date of birth and military number.
