DD Form 2065 is titled "Disposition of Remains Reimbursable Basis" and establishes procedures for handling, preparing, and making the final disposition of military remains. It follows guidelines set by the United States Department of Defense and records the sponsor's explicit instructions for the care and disposition of the deceased.
The form captures identifying information for both the deceased and the sponsor. It also includes the sponsor's chosen disposition option from a list of pre-defined choices, cost authorizations for required services, and the name and address of a designated contact within the continental United States. The form notes that providing the requested information is voluntary, though delays may occur if key details are omitted. Because this document addresses sensitive circumstances during a difficult time for families, careful and complete completion of each section is essential.
For additional military and end-of-life documentation, see these related forms: DD Form 93 (Record of Emergency Data), DD Form 2656 (Data for Payment of Retired Personnel), and the Final Disposition Form.
