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.
What else can I help you with?

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.

You must have at least an Honorable or OTH discharge.

Does a honorable discharge disqualify you from being a police?

Is being retired from the military the same as being honorably discharged from the military?
Retirement nets you an honourable discharge, but not all honourably discharged personnel are retirees. If you enlist for three, four, etc. years, perform your duties like you're supposed to, and decide not to reenlist, you're discharged when your contract expires. You receive an honourable discharge based on the character of your service. Someone who retires still receives such a discharge, but now we're talking about someone who has reenlisted multiple times, and will be collecting a pension.
How Long Does it take for a general under honorable condition to upgrade to a honorable discharge?
It doesn't. The only way for a General (under honorable conditions) discharge to be upgraded is to go before the Board of appeals. Even then, your chances of getting an upgrade are slim (less than 1%) Even in the best of situations, if you did successfully appeal and get an upgrade, it would still be on your records because that (Honorable) was not the original characterization of discharge, and there is a code that identifies it as such. The above answer is partially correct. The characterization of service does not automatically upgrade to Honorable...ever. Members can apply to the Discharge Review Board (DRB) for their respective service to be considered for a change of characterization. Upgrades are few and far between.

How many years does it take after an NJP to get an honorable discharge?
The time it takes to receive an honorable discharge after a Non-Judicial Punishment (NJP) can vary based on several factors, including the nature of the NJP, the service member's conduct following the punishment, and the overall length of service. Generally, if a service member demonstrates good behavior and meets all other criteria, they can still be eligible for an honorable discharge after completing their service obligation, which is typically 4 to 6 years for active duty. However, specific circumstances may affect this timeline, so it's essential to consult with a military personnel officer for personalized guidance.
