  • Military Administrative Discharges—The Pendulum Swings
    MILITARY ADMINISTRATIVE DIS- CHARGES-THE PENDULUM SWINGS ROBINSON 0. EVERETT* The type of discharge which a man receives upon being separated from the Armed Services can have a profound effect on his civilian life. Not unexpectedly, therefore, much concern has been recently expressed concerning the safeguards and procedures available to the serviceman to contest an unfavorable discharge, both before and after termination of his military service. This article ex- haustively examines the problems surrounding the administrative discharge and the limitations being imposed on its unfair use by the military itself, by the courts, and by Congress. INTRODUCTION N 1962 the Subcommittee on Constitutional Rights of the Senate Judiciary Committee opened legislative hearings on the consti- tutional rights of military personnel by emphasizing concern that |administrative discharges were being increasingly used by the Armed Services to circumvent safeguards for the serviceman which Congress had provided in the Uniform Code of Military Justice.1 Those hearings resulted in a number of legislative recommendations 2 and the introduction by Senator Sam J. Ervin, Jr. of several bills to provide service personnel with new protection in military ad- ministrative actions and to reverse the trend towards their use.3 None of these bills was the subject of hearings during the Eighty- Eighth Congress; but they were all reintroduced in the present * A.B. 1947, LL.B. 1950, Harvard University.

  • FPCD-80-13 Military Discharge Policies and Practices Result In
    _‘ !\I 33y BY THECOMPTROLLER GENERAL 7%~ Report To The Congress OF THE UNITED STATES Military Discharge Policies And Practices Result In Wide Disparities: Congressional Review Is Needed The military services characterize a member’s service by the type of discharge imposed at separation. Different philosophies and prac- tices among the services for imposing and up- grading discharges have led to wide disparities, which erode the integrity of the system. Therefore, the type of discharge may have little to do with the former service member’s performance on active duty. Many with less than fully honorable discharges may have better service records than others with fully honorable discharges. Yet these judgments are used to differentiate among former service members, usually without further review. This report discusses these problems and makes recommendations to the Secretary of Defense. The Congress should also consider the problems discussed and decide the future of the services’ characterization and separa- tion systems. 111337 COMPTROLLER OENLRAL OC THE UNITED STATES wA8HINoToN. D.C. zou8 B-197168 To the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives f M/O LloflQ I The military departments characterize the service of each member by the type of discharge imposed when the in- dividual is separated. The current system of discharyes was adopted by the Department of Defense in 1947, but each service has developed and implemented its own philosophies and practices. As a result, people with similar service records are getting different types of discharges. The most favorable type of discharge--the honorable-- should be reserved for honest and faithful service but is awarded to many persons discharyed for reasons indicating they were not successful.
