I used to serve on `admin sep’ boards in the reserves.

The effect is the same as a court martial, but it’s an administrative process. Conducted just like a court martial, but instead of conviction, a recommendation is made to the chain of command as to whether or not a service member used illegal drugs & that individual’s potential for rehabilitation. It’s his commander’s decision to retain or separate. JAGs serve more as advisors than as officers of the court.

If the C.O. decides to separate, it’s usually a general discharge which may or may not affect VA benefits afterwards.

Since Hunter Biden has a brother Beau Biden who did serve as a JAG, he sure as h*** should have taken some advice about command directed urinalysis & the consequences of coming up hot. The stupidity doesn’t fall far from the tree.

scum bag in the eyes of a potential employer.

He's a lawyer. Being a scumbag is a resume enhancer!

Thanks,elcid1970, for the explanation.

Yes, you make a great point with Beau being a JAG, and Dad being the VP, you would think that you would not want to embarrass the family name.

But Hunter is a Biden, and a Biden never thinks.

A Biden, with substance abuse problems? Who’d have thunk it?

Just like John Kerry, he’ll get it changed to an honorable discharge and no one will be the wiser.

So another of the elitist’s offspring screwing up. Anyone that thinks this should not be published is wrong. if he wouldn’t got caught he would still be in the Navy. What if his condition caused someone else to get injured or killed then their would be the cry of why wasn’t this looked into. Anyway he will get special treatment being the son of the dud.

Maybe it's like people who cuss all the time such that they inadvertently blurt out filth when they need to speak properly.

As in, he could be so accustomed to existing above the laws regulating the little people, that he couldn't override his default [lawless] behavior.

A Dishonorable Discharge and a Bad Conduct Discharge, both of which are only given to Enlisted, can only be given as a form of punishment stemming from a General Courts-Martial. The equivalent of a Dishonorable Discharge for an Officer is called Dismissal from the Service. It also can only be given as a result of a General Courts-Martial. My guess, since there was no dealing involved, and his daddy is a big-wig, an administrative discharge was the route taken.

It's private

Not exactly. Isn't this the son who ended up with a cushy unwarranted job with a Ukranian Oil Company? You really want a coke addict's decisions influencing our decisions in a war in which we aren't for sure on the correct side?

Thanks,ops33, for the info.

Guess I was thinking in terms of the enlisted ranks about discharge labels.

Hunter been in trouble before by being involved in bad hedge funds, along with his uncle, Joe Biden’s brother.

So far Beau Biden, hunter’s older brother, has kept his nose clean. He should—he is the Attorney General of DE.

Let me revise what I would say, if a applicant came to me for a job and he had an other than honorable, I most likely would not hire him.

Amen! Now all he needs to do is become a pot head and be in a daze for two years and presto, he be “Commander of Chief” of the “Marine Corpse.”

Let’s see if the law firm he belongs to now will do the right thing and ask him to “leave”. Surely some patriotic veteran that isn’t a dope head could use a job.

The billion dollar law firm I worked at for a year was the only job I ever applied for that did not drug screen. Drug use itself wasn't even outright grounds for termination. If it became a PROBLEM and you did not seek addiction counseling BEFORE they raised the issue, then you could be terminated. Plenty of cokehead lawyers out there.
