    FYI
    It's official, DD-214's are NOW Online!

    The National Personnel Records Center (NPRC) has provided the following website for veterans to gain access to their DD-214's online: http://vetrecs.archives.gov/

    This may be particularly helpful when a veteran needs a copy of his DD-214 for employment purposes. NPRC is working to make it easier for veterans with computers and Internet access to obtain copies of documents from their military files. Military veterans and the next of kin of deceased former military members may now use a new online military personnel records system to request documents. Other individuals with a need for documents must still complete the Standard Form 180, which can be downloaded from the online web site. Because the requester will be asked to supply all information essential for NPRC to process the request, delays that normally occur when NPRC has to ask veterans for additional information will be minimized. The new web-based application was designed to provide better service on these requests by eliminating the records centers mailroom and processing time.


    G Company Events  
    We hope you will enjoy our presentation of activities, events and community spirit in bringing these magnificent pieces of rolling history to the public eye.

    The Lone Star Military Vehicle Preservation Association (Lone Star MVPA) is an affiliated local chapter of the National MVPA (http://www.mvpa.org).  As a local chapter, Lone Star MVPA is dedicated to the history, preservation and display of HISTORICAL military transport from all periods, conflicts, wars and countries.  Our club members include current and retired military personnel as well as non-military members and families.  We are not affiliated with any para-military organization.  We are collectors of history.

    Our members generally reside in the Central Texas area although we have many members several hundred miles away in addition to out of state membership.  Our membership expertise ranges from 1/4 ton vehicles and trailers through armor and tracked vehicles for US, Allied and Axis powers.  Vehicles range in age from pre-war/WWII through Vietnam.

    As a club, we participate in a tremendous number of events per year with our vehicles, uniforms and equipment.  Our club has grown to the point that on occasion we must turn-down events due to the fact we are in such demand.  These events include, but are not limited to:

    • Car Shows
    • Parades
    • Air Shows
    • Convoys & Trail Rides
    • Historical Re-enactments
    • Events of Public Interest
    • Community Service activities
    • Private Events

    We invite you to take a moment to view our site in it's entirety.  We believe you will enjoy what we have to offer in the way of military history, vehicle restorations, uniforms, events and a fantastic camaraderie of membership.
