I was discharged in 1994 with a RE-4 reenlistment code. Frequent involvement with military authorities. I waived a board at discharge and now I would like to upgrade to a discharge that will allow me use of the VA benefits as if I had an Honorable Discharge. I have been diagnosed with Bipolar Type 1 and I was given a psych evaluation in the Marine Corps by a military doctor and results were found to be, a personality disorder.

Go to VA.gov and there is a link on one of the drop downs. It will walk you through the process

To get an upgrade, you have to show that your chain of command erred. If you have any UCMJ actions then you are dead in the water. If you have an OTH you can still get treated at a VA facility. You have oblowme to thank for that.
