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.

Can a person with another than honorable discharge receive VA Benefits?

You'd really have to check with the Veterans Administration to be sure, however, unless the regulation has changed - no. I believe one year after separation you can apply to upgrade that "Other Than Honorable" to an "Honorable" discharge and then be eligible for benefits. A lot hinges on your civilian record since discharge. Again, I'm going from memory and everyone knows that's not reliable, so to be sure call your local VA representative and ask them. They can cite you chapter and verse and will even assist you in the application process when the time requirement is up. If anyone else out there can help this guy or provide more accurate information PLEASE do.
