am I considered a veteran if I have a dishonorable discharge
I was a coward
onley in your mind
Anyone who is either on Active Duty, Reserves, or is a former service member is considered a military Veteran.However, recognition and status is based on the type of discharge - dishonorable or bad conduct discharges strip you of all Veteran's rights.
no you can't get a good job
You can still file a lawsuit. Convicted felons currently serving in prison are still able to file lawsuits.
Yes you can in certain states..But, does anyone know in which states it is allowed?
Yes, but not for members with Bad Conduct/Dishonorable. Members with and OTH (Other Than Honorable Discharges) are still eligible and can receive a burial flag. There are no laws that prevent someone from purchasing and draping a casket with a flag however one will not be provided military honors by the guard to fold and present it to the next of kin if you have a dishonorable discharge. You must have at least an Honorable or OTH discharge.
It doesn't. You can try getting it sealed via an attorney and the federal courts, but be prepared to spend a LOT of money, and then you still probably won't get your way.
All veterans who discharged under honorable conditions (or anything other than dishonorable or BCD) are entitled to wear their uniforms, provided they can still fit into them and project proper military bearing.
An honorable discharge is the highest form of departure from military service. You get everything. (Did you mean dishonorable?)
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.
Yes. As an active reserve member you are still under the same contract as active duty. Your most recent discharge is used for benifit information.
pink blood in discharge is but doesn't always mean your pregnant cause i got it then got my period 2 weeks later
It depends on what type of Governmental help you are referring to and whether the Marine has received an honorable discharge in the past, previous to his Dishonorable Discharge. If a Marine in his or her 1st enlistment receives a DD then the Marine will lose many benefits. If however the Marine served one enlistment and received an Honorable Discharge and then reenlists he will be entitled to all benefits from that first enlistment. But you still need to speak to a Veterans Affairs Representative for details.
