Anyone know what an honorable discharge is????

Question

It is awarded at the expiration of your enlistment. It means you served your time and served honorably. You did your job, did it well, and can be proud of it. The best part is, it requires no explanation.

Can anybody tell me what itis like to have any other kind of discharge,((Medicals don't count.))

Answer 1

I thought it meant having sex with an honorable woman. I have an honorable discharge from the USMC. Most everyone who keeps their nose clean gets one. I served with guys who got undesirable discharges. One was for selling drugs, another was for trying to mail an M-14 rifle home, part by part, and another for being a homosexual. I am pretty sure that a person cannot get the G.I.Bill or other government benefits given to veterans. The G.I. bill got me through college. I would have been screwed without it.

Answer 2

I had a General Discharge from the Air Force...they said I have some VA benefits but I lost my GI Bill...better than a Dishonorable I guess

Answer 3

General Discharge and Dishonorable Discharge..

Answer 4

Cant write a better answer than Pam above me she is 99.99% right but also add to her answer the fact that if you get a dishonorable discharge you life as a civilian sucks period you can't even buy or posses a fire arm. Don't believe me ask you local friendly ATF agent! LOL Plus on my eyes unless you served honorably you are a piece of ****. ................Shadow Stalker

In the Army, there is a "other than honorable discharge" ... they are basically to denote what benefits you will receive when you leave ... honorable discharge you will receive all the benefits possible, based on your length of service ... from what my husband tells me ... the "other than honorable discharge" is better as far as benefits than dishonorable ... where you receive no benefits

Other than benefits you need to think of how these discharges will effect you in the Civilian world ... most employers will want to know how you were discharged! It is public record and can be located during a background check which is status quo now for most employers,

Also, pride ... and self esteem ... it may seem like a small insignificant thing when you just want out of the Army ... or other branches ... but I think that it would have a great impact later on in life!

Types of discharge
The type of discharge you receive will determine your eligibility for benefits, your ability to reenlist, and your eligibility for Reserve duty. Although there are many different types of discharges, these are the most common:

* Honorable discharge. Service members separating from the military with a commendable record generally receive an honorable discharge. Service members with an honorable discharge usually receive a reentry code that will allow them to reenlist, join another service, or join the Reserve. Honorable discharges fall into several categories, including:


* Voluntary separation refers to service members who leave voluntarily at the end of their term of active service, whether it is after one or several tours of duty. They will receive most separation benefits, but not extended medical insurance (although there are exceptions, such as service members who were subject to a "stop loss").


* Involuntary separation refers to service members who leave because they have reached their service limits -- for example, service members who have been passed over two times for promotion or service members who have reached their high-year tenure. Involuntarily separated service members may receive a separation package that includes separation pay and extended medical benefits.


* General or administrative discharge. This type of discharge is usually considered "under honorable conditions," but service members will lose some benefits -- including the Montgomery GI Bill. The re-entry code the service member receives, which allows him or her to re-enlist or join the Reserve, will depend on the circumstances of the discharge.


* Other than honorable, bad conduct, or dishonorable discharges. Service members who receive these types of discharges will lose many of their separation benefits. In many cases, the re-entry code will not allow them to re-enlist or join the Reserve. Those interested in a job with the federal government, a state agency, or other government organization or contractor may not be considered for employment based on their military discharge.

Hope that this helps! Hooah!
