Last year, on the 12th anniversary of the repeal of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” (DADT) policy, the Department of Defense announced new initiatives to better reach former Service members impacted by policies mandating separation from service based on sexual orientation and, as appropriate, correct their records to more accurately reflect the honor with which they served. Farrell et al. v. Department of Defense et al. This lawsuit is about whether the United States Constitution requires the Department of Defense to remove references to sexual orientation from discharge paperwork (DD_214) of veterans discharged under “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” and earlier policies barring lesbian, gay, and bisexual people from serving in the military. You are covered in the settlement, if you meet the following criteria:
Those who have served in the US Army, Navy, Air Force or Marine Corps; and
You were administratively separated (involuntarily discharged without a court martial proceeding) before September 20, 2011; and
The reason for discharge on your DD-214 references sexual orientation in a code or the narrative reason for separation.
There are two groups of personnel who may request an updated DD-214:
If your DD-214 references sexual orientation AND your discharge characterization is HONORABLE or UNCHARACTERIZED/ENTRY LEVEL, you may request a new DD-214 that does not reference sexual orientation directly through the Records Section at Headquarters Marine Corps. You will receive a new DD-214 without having to go through a Board review. See below information about how to submit for your change. If you fall into this category, please email SMB_Farrell_Class_Action_Lawsuit@usmc.mil with your full name, current mailing address, and, if available, a copy of your most recent DD Form 214.
If your DD-214 references sexual orientation AND your discharge characterization is GENERAL UNDER HONORABLE CONDITIONS or OTHER THAN HONORABLE CONDITIONS, you will be able to request to be part of a group review by the Board of Correction of Naval Records.
