In accordance with Federal Law, only Citizens of the United States can be granted a Commission in the Armed Forces. I served and retired at a senior grade, and therefore have a DD Form 2, yes the Retired ID. In light of these facts, is my Retired ID proof of my citizenship?

No, because it is a reference document. Most government entitles require the source document to validate your citizenship.

The Specialist is correct. It's kind of a philosophical argument, anyway.

Lt Col Timothy Cassidy-Curtis - It may be a philosophical argument but your retired ID is no good to prove your citizenship.
