There really is no guarenteed way.  Some commanders will kick you out for the smallest thing, others will keep you in just out of spite.  Those that do kick you out, may know that your doing or did whatever just to get kicked out so will give you the dishonorable discharge just so you don't get 100% of what you wanted.  \n\nThe best choice that you can do is stay in a suck it up.  The average enlistment is 4 years, same as college and after you can do something related to your MOS regardless if you did it while you were in, and regardless of how much of a POS you were.  Plus you get life long VA benifits, a GI bill, and the self-respect to know you didn't quit.  \n\nIf you quit, you get what?  A fu-ked up record, no job, (and I would fire you on the spot if I heard you got kicked out regardless of discharge status, and I am not alone on that belief), and a life of regret?\n\nJust don't leave your room, miss every formation, and just say you can take the stress anymore.  Mental discharge..., sounds like you fit the profile already anyway..., reposting the same question everytime it expires...?  \n\nJust grow up and take it like a man!

You may get a ticking off and a small fine.  It's more likely that nothing will happen to you and that a grateful prosecutor will look at your documents and apply to have you discharged.  (I do hope so!)

WRONG!!!!!\n\nDischarge for failure to meet height/weight standards is generally not grounds for an unfavorable discharge.  If you have no adverse personnel actions, you should expect at worse a general discharge.  I would, however, expect it to be an honorable discharge.  Seek out an attorney if they try to pursue anything else.  (See the classified section of Army Times.)

When faced with investigation or harassment, some service members are tempted to leave their units without permission. Going AWOL (Absence Without Leave), referred to in the Navy as UA (Unauthorized Absence), is a violation of Article 86 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ). It is a serious matter that nearly always hurts service members more than it helps them.\nService members who go AWOL may face arrest and nearly always face punishment, including restriction, non-judicial punishment (NJP) and even court-martial. Going AWOL may increase a service member’s chance of getting an Other Than Honorable (OTH) discharge. It usually makes the discharge process go slower for those who want to get out of the military and can lead to confinement.\n\nService members who go AWOL sometimes miss a movement or deployment. “Missing movement” is a violation of Article 87 of the UCMJ. This is a serious offense that can result in court-martial or increase the chances of an Other Than Honorable discharge based on misconduct.

I think by your name you may be a Marine.  Crimes are crimes, and some, can be forgiven with hard work and a real change.  I am an NCO and I have seen troops grow up and take their duty and the rules seriously.  You can change, even if you get discharged.  You can ALWAYS choose the right path, just hope it is not to late, like for Tookie Williams.  Chose to change too late.

If he desires to leave, despite the fact that he is needed and many other soldiers have many other problems a lot worse than this and chose to stay in, he can try for a "hardship discharge". That's basically saying that continuing his enlistment would cause an undo hardship. That would avoid a dishonorable discharge, which for the record, if he were to get one, there are a lot more things he would have to be concerned about than financial security.He would be a felon. he could not vote. He could not own a firearm. his credit would be shot, for life. And anyone who ever does a background check on him would know. Also, it's pretty much impossible to get a dishonorable discharge today without having committed some crime that would earn time in military prison.

Have his beach det admin office send you a copy of his deployment orders. This may be a bit difficult if you don't have a power of attorney from him though.

there is a chance, but you messed up pretty bad. i got a pardon for theft. and it was a pretty big pardon also, it took them awhile to decide. so you might have a chance.

Best way to get honorably discharged is to just finish your term. Even if you had minor issues in your time served you will still be discharged honorably. Also there are medical discharges and hardship discharges. Sometimes if being in the Army truly makes it difficult for you to care for someone(just an example) you can recieve a hardship discharge. \n\nAnother way is to appeal your discharge. If you have been discharged on an other than honorable discharge you can go before a board and appeal your case to attempt to get your discharge upgraded.

It depends on the laws of the state you live in, the reasons you were discharged, and your former employers history.\nI live in GA. It is my practice to challenge every claim for unemployment. The overall rate I pay for workers compensation is based on the number of claims for unemployment that are made against me. \nCan you still aquire a clearence? Do you mean a security clearence? If you were discharged for being late, not likely. If you were discharged for smoking pot on company property, than yes. The results of some states unemployment claims hearing are treated the same as a court case and are a matter of public record. Some states it is nothing but a private insurance claim.

There is no way. Unless you get a friend to buy a guardianship certificate for you. Artix forum moderators don't like people who beg for guardianship so don't post this there.

Depends on how legit the charge is.  If you're absolutely certain you did nothing wrong, you can refuse to sign it and request court-martial.  I wouldn't recommend this unless you're positive of your innocence.  Either way, you should seek legal advice.
