You'd have to define what you meant by "special". The various categories of discharge are pretty much standardised, and this is noted usually by a three letter code (in current versions - numeric versions had been used in the past).
DD214 is the discharge form. DD256 is the discharge certificate.
no, but from his DD Form 214, which all military receive at time of leaving service. a DD form 214 will show type of discharge given...............
Signifies an Honorable Discharge from Active Service, Given along with a DD-form 214
ask to see copy of his/her DD Form 214, discharge paper

Yes, both OTH (Other Than Honorable) and Admin (Administrative) discharges from the Army receive paperwork showing their discharge. This paperwork is known as a Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty (DD Form 214) and it includes information about the type of discharge and the reason for it.
DD-214; discharge papers (discharge document). It contains everything...if something's not on it...it didn't exist. The only way to correct or add to a DD-214 is by producing written orders, then the DD214 can be amended.
No, but they can be used in the same fashion sometimes. DD 1300 is report of casualty, the person is already deceased and can be used whenever proof of death is required. The DD 214 is the discharge papers, needed for everything and eventually for death benefits.
That's a piece of paper you get when discharged from military service. Don't lose it because you will need it if you ever apply for any vereran's benefits. The DD Form 214 is more important than the actual discharge paper.
