With a Dishonorable Discharge the answer is No; that is one of the many privileges you give up when you do something to get that discharge. However, do not confuse a Dishonorable for one of the other less then honorable discharges. The Undesirable and Bad Conduct discharges have some impact on your rights and privileges as a cities but the Dishonorable is the worst and basically wipes them out. You can request a review and upgrade of any discharge to a higher one through the applicable service's process; Navy and Marines used the Bureau of Correction Naval Records (BCNR). Very few Dishonorable Discharges are given as it takes a conviction of a General Courtmartial to give one and it means you have been convicted of a felony under military law and most crimes would be in a civilian court also.

For a Dishonorable Discharge you cannot vote any more or own a gun. It is very hard to get a Dishonorable, you pretty much have to be convicted of a felony to get one.

A dishonorable is the equivalent of a felony conviction. However, you may be able to get the discharge upgraded to a less serious category. You'd need to talk to a lawyer who specializes in military law.

It depends on why you got the dishonorable discharge.....if you committed a felony, no.

if you have a dishonorable discharge because you have been to prison and you are on parole, no you can't. if you have completed your sentence, yes. if you just have a dishonorable discharge, yes you can.

If you are a citizen then it is your right, at all times to vote as you see fit. Simple

Uh...yeah, why wouldn't you be able to? Any citizen can vote. Getting fired from the army hardly qualifies you as a non-citizen.

Yup. Felons can't vote, though.

Yes, it is not a criminal conviction.
