Man I'll tell you what, I got OTH discharge from the Navy for a WHOLE LOT LESS. What a fucking joke. Fuck this
This was civilian court. He hasn't been tried in a court martial yet.
He'll be heading to Leavenworth shortly. The military always lets civilian courts go first, specifically to ensure that service members don't get off lightly.
This is like the $150 fine that the Commonwealth of KY will fine you if you detonate a nuclear device within city limits. They're just getting the pennies they think they might get out of you when the federal government is done with you.
I think it's five years later you can appeal, and almost all of them get approved.
Like, if you got a DUI or popped on a drug test, you can probably get it changed. It's a small hassle, but there's no reason not to fill out the paperwork
what is OTH?
Other than honorable
That's different from dishonorable?
There are 8 different discharge types. You can read about them at the link below, but basically other than honorable is for serious violations (assault for example) that don’t meet the dishonorable criteria.

"Veterans with this determination may also not be able to vote"
WTF?
Military service is dangerous for multiple reasons…
Not just life and limb, but social participation. The only place where a non-felony can land you with felony restrictions.
As a veteran myself (I was young and dumb. I’m still dumb, but not young), I encourage everyone avoid joining the US military at all costs. It’s really not worth the free college (which isn’t worth a whole lot these days anyway, since everyone has a worthless degree).
I find weird that the right to vote can be stripped at all.
Here in Europe every adult can vote, no matter what.Yes but you live in a more civilized society, in which personal rights are important enough for GDPR type laws.
Our populous is fucked.
Thanks for sharing.
