LOL! I think those blackshirts in the background who were skinnin' and grinnin' had something to do with that!

Is that you?
Well, it is not that simple. What kind of discharge did this guy get? Was it less than honorable?
Here is a good link to refer to:
MOAA - Why Was I Denied Access to VA Health Care?
This guy is full of shit, E4 is an NCO rank in both sea services and you don't get it right out of boot camp. Even with a degree.—Advanced from boot camp to e4 for outstanding performance
—Made e5 in a an almost record setting 18 months for his rate
—Battalion PT leader
—Battalion base security co lead
—Awarded three NAMs and several quarterly engineering awards for superior performance in his rate and in tactical execution
—Zero NJPs or serious infractions
—Awarded the base pennant for organizing the first Pearl Harbor memorial morning colors ceremony in Okinawa for decades.
—Honorable discharge after being caught up in the post “war” draw down where a line was cut in the sand and regardless of performance history, if you were on the wrong side of the budget, you went home.

Should've said Article 15 instead of NJP. Try again next time.Man that’s so weird because I actually believe I got that promotion. Gosh I must be misremembering my awards ceremony and ritual hazing afterwards. The intense bruising on my arm was definitely a false memory.
Hate to break it to you playboy but if you had no idea that early advancement existed in boot, you weren’t performing at a level to be worthy of it. The military is the easiest organization on earth to get promoted in if you know how to play the game.
Unfortunate that you didn’t key in on that.

Something doesn't add up.
Protip, NJP is only for the sea services. It's called an Article 15 in the Army and Air Force. Good luck next time!By the way, for lingo purposes, nobody really uses “NCO” as a descriptor. You want to be called by your actual rank/rating/title if you’ve earned it.
They probably don’t go into depth in call of duty lounges about that. Just a heads up!

You can graduate boot camp as an E4 only in the Army. There's no such thing as an NJP there. You're welcome.I have no idea what you mean by that and I don’t understand how you’re hitting me with the “gotchya” there. I was security team for numerous NJPs. I mean, a lot. Soooo you cited the reg title and that means what exactly??

And you can't graduate boot camp as an NCO in the sea services.Yeah... I was in the Navy soooo.., not really seeing your counter point here bud.

Was it the tattoos, Daniel?Wait did I say I was in the army somewhere? I’m aware of the difference. You know, running security and logistics in Okinawa and Iraq and Afghanistan interacting with a lot of services you sort of pick up the difference....
And yet, I somehow was. Man I cannot believe I’m imagining my accelerated advancement. Thanks so much for making me aware.And you can't graduate boot camp as an NCO in the sea services.
So why were you kicked out, Daniel?
