LOL! (Sorry). I think you are the first person I've ever heard of
that has his high school diploma on display on a wall.

I don't know where my high school diploma is. I'm fairly certain my
mother "lost it" when she moved from New Haven to Florida. My college
diplomas are in a scrapbook in the house somewhere...never bothered to
get them framed and I don't recall looking at either of them for, oh, 40
years.

I am not sure I had my high school diploma a week after they gave it
to me
If anyone wants to see proof, check with the DC school system. Knowing
what I do about DC, they probably lost it too.

Same here, I don't think I've ever saw mine more than once or twice.

I have had a lot more use for my DD214 than my diploma.
In fact that was all I needed to get my Social Security.

Good thing, because I have not had a SS card since 1964 when I lost my
wallet in the Potomac river near Key Bridge. (canoeing to Three
Sisters at night)

I have mine, a second one. It's not easy to get a replacement, doubt I'd
do it again. BUT, isn't it law that you have to have one?
