The short answer NO. I got an ELS after 5 1/2 months in the Marines for medical reasons. Might as well forget you ever served at all. We could be the guys who would do anything to stay in but we'll always be considered the same as the ones who would do anything to get out. But it's convenient for the government. No benefits period.
Yes, entry-level separation can be honorable, depending on the circumstances. If a service member is separated due to reasons such as medical issues, personal circumstances, or failure to meet specific requirements without misconduct, it can be classified as an honorable separation. It's important to review the individual's service record and the reasons for separation to determine the classification accurately.
A general discharges is given to a service member whose performance is satisfactory, but is marked by a considerable departure in duty performance and conduct expected of military members. There is no specific discharge called "general discharge with honorable conditions."There are six types of discharges:HonorableGeneralOther than HonorableBad ConductDishonorableUncharachterized (or Entry Level Separation) -- neither good nor badSee more details about general discharge at the related links.
that is not true as a marine who was dicharged for drug use i know that if you test positive in your first 180 of service you can only receive entry level separation with no characerization of service and after 180 days most likely an OTH other than "honorable" discharge or possibly a BCD bad conduct discharge i tested positive for cociane and got an OTH
There are actually seven different types of discharge characterization: Uncharacterized - For entry level separations where the member has served less than 180 days when notifed of administrative separation. This can be recieved for a variety of different reasons. With respect to non-service related matters such as VA benefits, civilian employment etc, shall be considered as the equivilent of an Honorable or General (Under Honorable Conditions) Honorable - an Honorable discharge is warranted when the quality of a member's service has met the standards of accepted conduct and performance of duty for military personnel. General under honorable conditions - is appropriate if the member's service has been honest and faithful, but significant negative aspects of the member's conduct or performance outweighs positive aspects of the member's military record. Under Other Than Honorable Conditions (OTH) - is warranted when a member engages in conduct involving one or more acts or omissions that constitute a significant departure from the conduct expected of members of the armed forces. Bad Conduct - Is assigned as part of the sentence at Special or General court-martial. Dishonorable - The least favorable characterization. Recieved as part of the sentence at General court-martial. Dismissal - Equivilent to a Dishonorable, but reserved for commissioned officers. Recieved as part of the sentence at General court-martial.
No, it does not.
Entry Level Separation means that they were discharged during their Initial Entry Training (e.g., during Basic Training). It doesn't specify the reason - it could've been for failure to adapt, it could've been for an inability to pass the physical fitness requirements, could've been for mental health issues... Entry Level Separation is a very broad category.
Yes, you can join the military with an uncharacterized discharge. An uncharacterized discharge typically means that your service ended before your commanding officer made a final determination on your discharge characterization. However, it is ultimately up to the individual military branch to determine if they will accept your application. It is recommended to consult with a military recruiter for more specific information based on your circumstances.
People in the administration will end up filing the discharge papers, however most are recycled after their entry into the database
No coefficient of discharge is not constant. It is a function of many parameters like :The ratio of the length of the orifice to diameter of orificeReynolds numberflow condition-whether it is increasing or decreasingPressure at the exit of the orifice (back pressure)Orifice entry condition- like smooth entry, sharp edged entry etc.
serve your contract to its end is the easiest and safest way to get out and have the benefits of being a vet, there are other ways to get out that will harm your job placements once out, oh and don't like on applications because of the employer finds out you lied about being in the military they can terminate you without warning and no un-employment checks will come your way.
It depends on the individual police department. Most do not require a degree for an entry level position, but many will require a degree for promotion beyond a given point. Check to see what the requirements are for the department you are interested in joining.
No. If you receive an Entry Level Separation, you basically never made it in.
