I had a brief time with the Territorial Army.. (a few months), and I was wondering how to answer question 24 on the DS230.. (Previous Military Service) I am presuming that I need to declare it..

My question is will I require a discharge certificate at the interview ?.. I was never issued a discharge certificate becuase I never completed training.

I have a info sheet that I was sent from the Army Personnel office stating my enlistment / Discharge date..

Not sure about your case, but my husband was in the RAF (he didn't have a discharge certificate either) and what the Consulate accepted was a signed letter from the RAF Personnel office stating his dates of enlistment/discharge.
