Baldwin County Revenue Commission

It was easy

On 7/27 21 I went to the DMV office in Foley to register my new vehicle and to return my previous tag and receive my new one. After waiting outside for a few minutes I was then able to wait inside, the wait time was about the same. My number was called and I went to the first window on the left, everything was going right until I asked if I was going to get the same type tag (Operation Enduring Freedom) for my new vehicle, the lady behind the glass said no because I had no proof or paper work of having that type of tag ( what more proof than the old tag and proof of tag receipts stating I have had the tag before). Being a veteran of 27 years that was an insult not to be reissued a tag which I have had since 2016 and fought in the Operation Enduring Freedom campaign for our Country. What else do I need to get this matter resolved (I did leave the office with a Retired Military tag -after showing my military ID and I’m proud to display on my vehicle, but part of my military career was bruised that day with the inconsiderate treatment I received that day). I hope other Veterans don’t get treated this way, I may have to wait until next year when I renew my tag, but we will see. Thanks
