According to the website United States Department of Veterans Affairs, DD214 has been issued by military services since January 1, 1950. Before January 1, 1950, several similar forms were used by the military services. DD256A is listed as Honorable Discharge Certificate. However, a Form DD256A may have been issued after 1950 if that form was still in possession of the signer, who hadn't switched over to DD214.
