South Dakota now allows honorably discharged veterans to use a Uniformed Services ID Card (Retired) as proof of their veteran status when applying for a veteran designation on their driver's license or ID card. Previously, veterans could only prove their military service using military discharge papers (DD Form 214) or certificates from county veterans service officers. This change makes it easier for retired service members to get the veteran designation without having to locate additional documents.
