administrative discharge from the military?
594362
Administrative Separations. Administrative separations cannot be awarded by a court-martial and are not punitive in nature. Enlisted personnel may be administratively separated with a characterization of service (characterized separation) or description of separation (uncharacterized separation) as warranted by the facts of the particular case.\n\n"Basis" is the reason for which the person is being administratively separated (e.g., pattern of misconduct, convenience of the government for parenthood, weight control failure, etc.). "Characterization of service" refers to the quality of the individual's military service (e.g., honorable, general, or Other Than Honorable).\n\nIndividuals who are separated with less than 180 days of continuous active military service may be separated as an "Entry Level Separation." In these cases, there is no characterization of service at all.\n\nAnother type of administrative separation is "Order of Release from the Custody and Control of the Military Services" by reason of void enlistment or induction. This type of separation also has no characterization of service.

Well a few things can happen. Alot of it actually depends on the military unit they went AWOL from. First off, as soon as we change thier duty status to AWOL, we hold all pay and allowances... we inventory all property they leave behind within 24 hours. The Army has a group of military police called "AWOL Apprehension" that are informed and a notice goes thru NCIC to all law enforcement agency's. After 10 days we send thier parents a letter explaining that they are AWOL and explaining duty and honor. At the 31 day mark, we begin processing the paperwork to drop them from the military rolls and seperate them from the Army for desertion. They are given a seperation code on thier official records and DD214 that codes them as a dessertor.  With that code, it is difficult for them to apply to any college, they will be turned down for all state and federal jobs and they cannot recieve alot of different loans... to include alot of consumer loans.  Life at that point kinda sucks for them... and usually so does thier pay.  McDonalds and Burger King have even started denying them employment. If you can't get a job at Burger King... well that rests on it's own merits....lol.

There is something called a hardship discharge.  I'm not sure how extreme that the circumstances have to be to receive that, however.  Seeing the chaplain is a good place to start.

YES, they most certainly do.  My husband was facing a medical discharge last year, but they decided there was really no reason for it, since the condition didn't surface until he had been in the military for four years, and it can be controlled by medication.  There are other people who have gotten discharged though, even people we know.

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!)

Are you just looking for money? \n\nHad this been a legitimate claim, then when you got out of the military you would have gone directly to the VA for a complete physical and a review of your medical record.\n\nIt all depends...how long ago was this...did you make a copy of your medical record BEFORE you got out? Is all of this documented in it? \n\nYou have to pretty much prove that it happened while in the military.\n\nYour best bet it to call the VA and see what they say. There are a lot of factors that go into it.

One possibility is that it's your discharge-code. This set of numbers mean different things like: available for reenlistment without reservations, subject to reactivation until (whatever date), or not cleared for reenlistment.\n\nThese numbers shouldn't mean anything to you unless you want to rejoin at some point.

i'll get back to you... \nEDIT:\n"RE-4 - Individuals separated from last period of service with a nonwaiverable disqualification (refer to AR 601-280). Ineligible for enlistment except as provided for in paragraphs 2-7c and 2-7d. (See waiverable moral and administrative disqualifications.) Disqualilication is nonwaivable."\n\nPer the regulation referenced it seems you can apply for a waiver to HRC-Alexandria. You need a recruiter willing to work hard for you. You will have to write a letter explaining the situation, in which you come clean about the past & SELL them on taking a chance on the new you (they're going to have a valid concern that you'll flake out again when it's time to go to work after they've spent a bunch of money training you).

No, you can not and still receive an honorable discharge.  Though others have suggested to try and violate policies and regulations, these types of actions could, very easily, have serious life long consequences.  I would suggest that you try and ride out this term of enlistment.  Do what is expected of you, nothing more, no one can argue with that.  Concentrate on taking college courses or technical schooling, think of the military as a vehicle propelling into a better life down the road.  Ask yourself these questions, "Is it really so bad right now?.....Will I regret being chaptered out of the military later in life?"\n\n\nGood Luck\nA Senior Non-Commissioned Officer

First let me say up front, I am a former US Army officer so my response to you inquiry may be a little bias!  Your boyfriend made a considered decision to join the service and has a copy of his signed contract to remind him of that.  I have heard that under the right conditions and tons of paperwork some people have been released from service after they completed basic training. Although with the current forces demand and stop-loss order in effect I don't see that his chances are very good.  \nA couple of things your boyfriend might want to think about.  #1...NO ONE likes bootcamp...heck, I sure didn't but it does eventually end.  Just not liking bootcamp is a pretty lame reason for wanting to quit; and that is what it would be, quitting.  #2...if he is released he will not receive an honorable discharge as one of the respondent's to your question suggested; he wouldn't have earned that privilege.  While there is nothing wrong with a General Discharge he will be given he might want to remember one thing regarding his future employment.  Practically any job worth having will ask if you have military service and the type of discharged the applicant received.  In my experience, most employers will move on to the next application as soon as they see General Discharge.  Why....a lot of reasons and he will never know that was the reason he was passed by.  Besides, there are probably enough people applying for the same position who have an Honorable Discharge listed.  Is it fair? No, but I have been in the business world for 25 years and have hired over 200 people and I never once even considered hiring a person with a General Discharge.  You might tell him that his decision to get out will follow him in regard to obtaining a job.\n\nAlso, if he has TB I find it incredulous that it wasn't discovered during his medical evaluation.  The military is very big on keeping people with communicable diseases out of the service.\nGood luck to your boyfriend.  I really hope things work out for him.

I've been out for 10 years now, but yes, the Army will discharge a person for failing the APFT. Normally, the soldier is put on a remedial fitness program in hopes of helping him to meet the standard. The soldier is usually "flagged" during that time, which means he is ineligible for awards, promotions, etc. If eventually he can pass an APFT, the flag is removed. If after a certain amount of time, the soldier does not improve, he can be discharged.

He is not sworn in yet, he would still at this point have to report for his physical and also be sworn in.\n\nThe recruiter is not going to help you or tell you anything about getting out.  You need to read the contract yourself and see about where the cluse is.\n\nAlso look on the paper work for a commanding officers office and number. \n\nJoining the army is not like going to work at Walmart, you can't just quit.
