Trying to list some typical terminology found on DD214's. Once we get all this down, I am going to post all the info and "pin it", so it will be readily available for all to see.
AUS-Army of the United States
ERC-Enlisted Reserve Corp
Reason for Authority for Separation-Rel to ERC SR means Relieved from active duty to Enlisted Reserve Corp. SR means Special Regulation
More to come. Gotta get back to bed and get some sleep...
