When one receives a Bad Conduct Discharge what VA benefits are retained?
A Bad Conduct Discharge, as opposed to a Dishonorable Discharge, is considered a separation under conditions Other Than Honorable. With an OTH discharge, the Department of Veterans Affairs makes the determination as to whether the OTH was based on conditions which would result in the forfeit of any or all VA benefits. The more serious offenses, such as desertion, mutiny, spying, etc., will result in loss of all benefits.
What if you had an honorable discharge prior to receiving an under other than honorable discharge?
Your DD-214 will reflect "continuous honorable service from yyyymmdd to yyyymmdd" reflecting the dates of your prior enlisment(s). This will show you honorably completed any prior enlistment. You may be eligible for certain VA benefits based on your prior enlistment, but will be eligible for few, if any for the enlistment for which you recieved an Under Other Than Honorable Conditions (OTH) characterization. Go to the VA and ask for a determination of eligibility for benefits. They will look closely at your record, and determine what you are eligible for.

Do you get any benefits if u completed your first term in the military and was cour marshaled on 2nd enlistment?
If you completed your first term in the military and were subsequently court-martialed during your second enlistment, it is unlikely that you would receive any benefits. The military generally provides benefits to honorable or general discharge recipients, and a court-martial usually results in a less favorable discharge status, such as a dishonorable discharge. Dishonorable discharges typically result in the loss of many military benefits.
What are grounds for a dishonorable discharge?
Unbecoming conduct (criminal or immoral activity), AWOL, poor service record, basically anything that is deemed to put the military in a bad light could be grounds for a dishonorable discharge. In cases of criminal conduct you could be subject to military courtmartial if committed on post or while engaged in military activity. You would then be sentenced to military prison, and after serving time would be dishonorably discharged.
