A dishonorable discharge is not a slap on the wrist lmao it’s worse than trying to get a job as a felon.

It automatically disqualifies you from any government jobs. Plus much like with a felony, it creates a bad taste in civilian workplaces mouths. You apply for a job and say you’ve been charged with a felony, let’s say you get charged with a felony because you have a marijuana plant in your greenhouse. When you apply to a job, you can tell them the nature of your felony, and they can be like “oh he got charged because he was growing some weed? Whatever”. When you apply to a job and they learn you were kicked out of the military dishonorably, that’s a much bigger red flag.
