What Are the Chances of Getting My Request Approved for Upgrading My Discharge in the Us Military?…?
Question by pierre b: what are the chances of getting my request approved for upgrading my discharge in the us military?…?
I was in the u.s. airforce active duty discharged under honorable, (misconduct: drug abuse). i wanted to upgrade it to honorable. is it better to hire a lawyer for this case? the commander relied on the police report (information gathered from statements of my peers) that made his decision of my discharge. the reason i’m asking this is because im not eligible for unemployment benefit, mgibill, get a good job in a big company, and other veterans benefits. please help.
in addition, airforce charged me of abuse of prescription drugs (percocet) when my wisdom teeth were pulled. and peers added statements with the report stating that i party alot and did recreational over the counter drug abuse. I was drug tested during the whole investigation and it all tested negative. the dates and results are even stated in the police report. so.. is there still no hope? and if there’s none, can i still get my $ 1200 that i paid MGIbill for the past 12 mos. since im not qualified to use it anymore? thanks for replying.

Why Does Bush Have Your Private Medical Records?
Question by Marc Miami: Why does Bush have your private medical records?
Bush administration is prying into your medical records in violation of the law
We learned yesterday that the Bush administration has created a database of every single prescription drug user/patient in the country (that would pretty much be all of us). The database was created pursuant to a 2005 law that was intended to prevent the abuse of prescription drugs. Funny that this massive new database of your private medical information is now being (ab)used for a purpose that wasn’t intended in or approved by the law.
