Comment on New law permits veterans designation on Florida driver’s license by JGW

A service member who is discharged for medical reasons incurred in the line of duty and who otherwise served honorably receives a general discharge under honorable conditions and is entitled to full VA benefits.

An Honorable Discharge means that the service member fulfilled all the obligations of their enlistment contract and conducted him/herself in a manner that did not violate the UCMJ.

A service member who does not fulfill their enlistment contract for whatever reason receives a General Discharge. It is analogous to being laid off or terminated from a civilian job. GD's can be under honorable or less than honorable conditions. Veterans receiving GD's may receive full VA benefits, limited benefits, or in extreme cases, no benefits, depending on the reason the service terminated their enlistment contract.

For those who have serious discipline or criminal problems separations from service are in the form of Bad Conduct or Dishonorable Discharges. They receive no veterans benefits.

Miami's community Newspspers does a great job covering the local news. I always pick up a copy when I am in a local business. Grant and Michael Miller are always going out of their way to help the local communities. I am glad my son and Grant's boys are now too old for little league Basebsll. We have been coaching our sons for many years and I am tired of Grant's team always beating our team .
