You may want to re-think your strategy, there, Bobo. A bad conduct discharge will send all kinds of red flags to prospective employers and it will be difficult to find a job. Then I and others will end up supporting your lazy azz via our tax dollars.

Why would you want to do that? You could end up in prison, or have trouble getting a good job later in life. I copied this online;
Misconduct
A misconduct discharge can result from a pattern of minor disciplinary infractions, a serious military offense, or a conviction by civilian authorities. Common misconduct offenses include drug use and unauthorized absence. If you're thinking of trying to get out for misconduct, you're taking a big risk. Most offenses resulting in a misconduct discharge are also punishable by court-martial, and you could wind up in prison with a bad conduct or dishonorable discharge.

If your command wants to give you a misconduct discharge, the commander must first try to "rehabilitate" you--give you another chance. If the command still decides, against your will, that you should be discharged, you can challenge it. You have the right to a lawyer and to an Administrative Board hearing where you can explain your behavior or defend yourself against unfair accusations. The hearing officers and NCOs will decide if you should be discharged, and what character of discharge (Honorable, General, or OTH) to recommend. Misconduct discharges are usually Under Other Than Honorable conditions.

Helping Out Regulations Guide: Misconduct Regulations
Discharge In Lieu of Court-Martial ("For the Good of the Service")
If you have been charged with an offense for which you could be given a court-martial (like AWOL or UA), you may request an administrative discharge instead of ("in lieu") of court-martial. This discharge will most likely be Other Than Honorable, which means you will probably lose your veterans benefits and may have problems getting a civilian job. But these, or worse situations, could also result from a court-martial. Although you will get a military lawyer, try to talk with a civilian attorney and find out how good your chances are at winning the court-martial.

A request for "separation in lieu of court-martial" does not always result in discharge, and you may have to admit your guilt when you make the request. If your request is turned down, your command could possibly use that admission of guilt against you, so it's risky. But so are the ordeals of court-martial, possible imprisonment, and a bad conduct or dishonorable discharge.

At this point in time, there isn't much you can do. My cousin's husband used to beat the absolute crap out of her and the army was well aware of it and did nothing. He went AWOL for a while and they didn't do much of nothing when he came back. He crashed a jeep just being an idiot and they didn't do anything to him. Complete and total psycho he was. My cousin finally got rid of him but I think the army still has him 5 or 6 years later.

if i were you i would seriously rethink it. i used to be in the military and there were times when i really just wanted to get out, no matter what the cost, but i realized that it is not worth it. it will cost you money, and it will make it difficult for you to get a job later. and it will take forever because they will keep you in as long as they can to prolong your misery and you may even get jail time if you do something bad enough. do yourself a favor and stick it out. talk to a close friend or the chaplain to help you through it, but dont do something stupid its not worth it.

I am not sure, but you did join the military, eh?
I am going to hell for what I did for this government. As a Christian, I am ashamed of my service for this dispassionate entity.
Finish your contract because with so few people to die for the Bush twins the military will not let you go without destroying you first. FTA

Punch your company commander and then your first sergeant. Tell them how you feel about the military. And yes, there is a BCD. Sometimes it's called, Big Chicken Dinner.

Just go up to your commanding officer and tell him that you are secretly in love with him then give him a big kiss. That should do it for you but you might not like the results.

The easiest way out is to gain weight. Start failing apft's, etc. It isnt as bad as a BCD, but it still isnt good.
