  1. dishonorable discharge

    A dishonorable discharge is the most severe type of military separation in the United States Armed Forces. It is often the result of a serious felony-level offense such as desertion, sexual assault, murder, fraud, or other acts which involve moral turpitude or violation of the military's code of conduct. It not only signifies that the individual's service was unfavorable, but it also strips them of all their veterans' benefits and may come with imprisonment. Having a dishonorable discharge on one's record has significant negative impacts on one's life, akin to carrying a criminal record.
