In addition to the acknowledgment of instruments in the manner and form otherwise authorized by law, persons who perform service in the uniformed services or their dependents, wherever located, may acknowledge the instruments before any commissioned officer who performs service in the uniformed services with the rank of second lieutenant or higher in the army, air force, marine corps or space force or ensign or higher in the navy or coast guard. The instrument is not invalid for failure to state therein the place of execution or acknowledgment. No authentication of the officer's certificate of acknowledgment is required, but the officer taking the acknowledgment shall endorse thereon or attach thereto a certificate substantially in the following form:
