What benefits are there for General Discharge under Honorable Conditions?
The same Benefits as you would get, if it was a regular Honorable Discharge....except for the GI Bill. Only members with Honorable discharges are eligible for this benefit.

Is active duty GI Bill effected by a other than honorable discharge in the Reserves even if you had a honorable while on Active Duty?
you will have to contact an education center to find out.
Can you still receive you GI bill with another than honorable discharge?
Yes. Having an Other Than Honorable discharge does not bar you from getting a Federal Job. They may scrupulously ask you further questions but it does not disqualify you. I know this because I work for the Federal Government and received an OTH several years ago. And I specifically stated on my application the type of discharge.

Can I change my General Discharge to a Honorable Discharge?
It depends on what your RE code is on your DD-214. If it's an RE-4, your chances are highly unlikely, unless you appeal your discharge. With it being general under honourable conditions, an RE-4 would seem a bit unlikely, however. Any RE-3 code renders you ineligible for reenlistment, but you can still be waivered in. Whether or not the ANG will grant you a waiver is dependent on a number of things that really only the recruiter will be able to determine, and, in turn, provide you with a definite answer.
How do you determine what your veterans disability benefit will be?
The patient vet doesn't make that determination. The VA does that after examining him. They set the value mark, and it will be done in percentages (%). 10% disabled, etc. Actually, benefits are derived based on the character of the veterans discharge. Once a year the Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA) publishes a booklet that describes (generally) all the veterans benefits. If a veteran has an honorable discharge, he/she is eligible for all (should he/she meet the requirments). If he/she has a general discharge, the veteran is not eligible for education benefits (GI Bill). If the Veteran has an "other than honorable" discharge, it is up to the DVA to determine if he/she will be paid for compensation for service connected disabilities and will determine if the other benefits will be paid out as well. If the veteran has a Bad Conduct Discharge (BCD), he/she can be buried in a Veteran Cemetary but isn't eligible for much else. A dishonorable discharge excludes the veteran from all benefits. It is a misconception that if you get less than an honorable discharge that your whole time in the service is characterized by the listed character of discharge. An example would be: Let's say an individual was selling drugs and was given a BCD discharge. It was determined by the evidence he was selling in the last six months of his/her service. If he/she had served three years prior to that, that service is considered honorable. The Veteran needs to apply for benefits for that three year period which is deemed HONORABLE, thus all benefits would apply.
If you're at tech school here longer than 6 months and fail out with a honorable discharge do you still get any of the GI Bill?
You don't. To qualify for GI benefits, typically you are required to serve at least half of your contract time or receive a medical discharge. You qualify for nothing having never left training status. Sorry.
Can you reenlist with an administrative separation from the military?
Yes, it is possible to reenlist with an administrative separation from the military. However, the decision to accept a reenlistment application ultimately lies with the military branch and its policies. Factors such as the reason for the administrative separation, the circumstances surrounding the separation, and the individual's performance and conduct during their previous service can all influence the decision.
