Serve the time one enlisted for.
AnswerYes, but that'll only get you an Honorable discharge, assuming you kept your nose clean throughout your enlistment. That's the discharge everyone wants, or at least SHOULD want--it provides the full benefit of your service.If you want a general discharge...I guess you could smoke some weed, self-refer yourself for drug treatment, then smoke some more weed while you're in there. They'll class you as a "rehabilitation failure" and kick you out, probably with a general. Then again, no one in their right mind would WANT a general discharge. It's not a good thing.

Actually, if you keep your nose clean and pass your PT tests, you can be chaptered out with an honorable discharge for failure to meet body fat standards (chapter 18). Failure to meet body fat standards is an honorable discharge, but, again, you MUST pass the PT test. So have a cheeseburger!
Finish your time of enlistment, hopefully without any serious disciplinary actions. Believe me , a less than Honorable discharge will affect the rest of your life. Even a General Discharge Under Honorable Conditions can be prejudicial to your future success.
You can simply not show up to your UTAs, although this would be a bit of a gamble... while this would normally net a General Discharge, it is possible to get an OTH if they decide they want to make an example of you.
Fail a drug test for cocaine or get caught smoking spice. General Under Honorable discharge occurs from that.
Complete your enlistment contract, or become ill or injured enough in the performance of your duty to obtain a medical discharge.
Do what you're supposed to do and stay out of trouble. It's not very difficult.
An honorable discharge is the way anyone gets out of the military unless they are kicked out. When you enlistment time is up and you don't want to enlist again, you get a notice of honorable discharge from the Army.
Anything other than an honorable discharge is undesirable. There is no official discharge characterized as "undiserable."
No, an individual who receives an other than honorable discharge from the Army National Guard is not considered a veteran. To be recognized as a veteran, one must have received an honorable discharge.
Yes, I did in 1985. Went from General Under Honorable Conditions to Honorable. Board was in Dallas Texas and once they found I was in college with all my VA benefits intack It was Granted. Got a new DD214 and a county job......
Typically, you must fail multiple times. If you do, at worst, it would be a general under honorable. You can apply in 6 months to have it changed to honorable. Most likely though, it would be honorable. SSG. Hernandez US Army (3rd ID)
Basically impossible--you have to tick off a lot of people to get anything lower than an honorable discharge from the military because the paper trail is so onerous. (One of my roommates at Fort Hood got thrown out on a general, and he left us a gift--the stack of paperwork they used to justify a less-than-honorable discharge. It was two inches thick, and really entertaining reading.) If you screwed up badly enough to get put out with a general discharge, the Army won't want you. Neither will the other three services.

Depends on the individuals Commander. In most cases an honorable discharge is given.
A dishonorable discharge is when a person in the army is discharged (Fired, or removed) for reasons that are not honorable, such as breaking a rule. An honorable discharge is when a person in the army either resigns for good reasons or is told to leave the army for safety, age, or other reasons. If a person is dishonorably discharged, he/she will not get as many benefits.
