What kind of discharges are there from the military?
There are three major types: Honorable, General and Dishonorable. Honorable discharges are given to personnel who have distinguished themselves in the service, such as those permanently physically disabled during conflict. In civilian terms, this is approximately like a medical retirement, with the addition of recognition for exemplary service and dedication. General discharges are typically given to personnel who have served well but not with great distinction and are leaving the service at the end of their enlistment period. In civilian terms, this is approximately like retiring. Dishonorable discharges are for those who are ejected from the military for failure to meet the terms of service. In civilian terms, this is approximately equivalent to being fired, with the additional notation that you were unfit for military service.

Do you get any benefits if u completed your first term in the military and was cour marshaled on 2nd enlistment?
If you completed your first term in the military and were subsequently court-martialed during your second enlistment, it is unlikely that you would receive any benefits. The military generally provides benefits to honorable or general discharge recipients, and a court-martial usually results in a less favorable discharge status, such as a dishonorable discharge. Dishonorable discharges typically result in the loss of many military benefits.
