Most service members keep their military ID after they are discharged, especially as most take terminal leave before their ETS date, and are still in the military during this time. However, they have an expiration date. The only way you'll be able to keep a maintain a current DoD identification card is to either reenlist, join a reserve component, become a civilian employee of the DoD, or marry someone in the military, and get a dependent's ID.

How do you get an ID card to show that you were honorably discharged from US Army?

The only categories of personnel, that I know of, who leave the Army with DOD ID Cards are: > Retirees with 20+ years of Service > SM who were discharged but are still dependents (ex: Dual-Military Family) Neither of those cards have marking on them stating the conditions of your discharge (although if you have a Retiree card, chances are that you retired honorably). Only way to truly prove that you were honorably discharged is to have a copy of your DD-214 with you.
