1. Application: Submit a completed application. Click Here and print out an  Application on your printer. OR: Request an Application by Email to VSPA Membership Chairman Phil Carroll.

 

2. Submit a copy of your DD-214 with your Application: both must be on file with VSPA prior to membership approval, and will go into the archives and not be returned.

If you don’t have a copy of your DD-214:

• How to Order a copy of your DD Form 214, Report of Separation:
• Mailing address is:
  National Personnel Records Center
  Military Personnel Records
  9700 Page Avenue
  St. Louis, MO 63132-5100

If you have a DD-214, but it doesn’t show your Vietnam or Thailand service, or your duty in Air Police or Security Police, email Phil Carroll for some help getting your records corrected.

 

3. DUES: A very modest $15 annual membership fee is required, from the date of your Application. If you pay dues by PayPal (It’s free, secure, and private. Merchants and VSPA never see your financial info.) you still must complete steps 1 and 2 above prior to membership approval. You may also send dues by snail-mail with your application and DD-214.  A Life Membership never expires.

No otherwise-qualified veteran will be denied membership if money for dues is a problem.
Just state that on your application.

Avoid Membership Application Rejection! Snail-Mail your application, a copy of your DD-214, and your dues to:

Phil Carroll, P.O. Box 8, Gladstone, OR 97027.

It’s best if you send everything at once. Once you’re accepted for membership, you’ll be notified by email or snail-mail, and given log-in information for the Restricted Area of the VSPA website.
