Re: DD-214
Comp73, your post and your evidence makes me laugh.I am not willing to spend anymore time arguing with ignorance. Again, you are entitled to full benefits with a General under honorable discharge. Call your local VA educational office to verify that. The only thing the VA wants to see is that character of service was honorable. A general under HONORABLE conditions states that.

Re: DD-214
As long as the the wording surrounds the assumption that "character of service" was honorable then you are eligible to receive the discount from the state. Regardless of what people think or say a General discharge under honorable conditions is comparable to a regular honorable discharge. If you pay close attention the General part is stating what type of discharge it was, and the honorable part is stating the character of service. Some organizations may demand a full honorable discharge, but when it comes to every veteran benefits program at both the state and federal level, ie...Texas land board, GI Bill, then a person with a general under honorable is entitled to full benefits. However, DPS may delay the process for you by requesting more information about the drug problem. Long story short. Yes you can still get the discount but it may delay processing. Hope that helps.
