General Discharge

A General Discharge is a type of military discharge that indicates a service member has completed their duties satisfactorily but may have some minor issues, such as behavioral or performance concerns. This discharge is neither honorably nor dishonorably given and typically allows the individual to receive most veteran benefits, though some may be limited. It reflects a level of service that is acceptable but not exemplary, meaning the individual has fulfilled their commitment without significant problems, but there may have been areas needing improvement.
