You must have at least an Honorable or OTH discharge.

What discharge did John Boehner receive from the navy?

He was given an honorable discharge. It was an administrative seperation for medical reasons. His biography lists the reason as a "bad back".

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.
