How do I retain my secondary MOS?

I am a former 68V, I was wondering if anybody has gone through the process of retaining their secondary MOS? Any advice will help.
My license/certification are current and in good standing with the NBRC and TMB.

When I reclassed from 12B back to 91B (now 68W), all that was needed was MOS Orders written to revoke 12B as Primary making it my Secondary and new MOS Orders giving me Medic as my Primary.

I have no clue how SRB's are maintained, but in the days of DA Form 20, you kept your secondary until you got an new secondary. (Yes, that did happen)

I carried three AFSC’s on my records.

When I was getting out, the woman processing my DD-214 absolutely would not include my additional MOS's. If you figure it out, be sure to post it because I'm positive you're not the only one having this problem.

I switched a couple times between 11B, 12B. No problem, just a set of orders.

It's pretty straight forward. Submit a DA 4187 requesting the action through your company office or PAC. Tick the "Other" box and enter something like "Request for retention of former PMOS as SMOS.
That's what I did and it worked for me.
