An Under Other Than Honorable Conditions (OTH) characterization of service is the least favorable non-punitive characterization of service. It it recieved due to administrative separation from the military due to misconduct.

An OTH is warranted when a member engages in conduct involving one or more acts or omissions that constitute a significant departure from the conduct expected of members of the armed forces. An OTH will deprive the member of virtually all veteran's benefits based upon the current enlistment, and they can expect to encounter substantial predudice in civilian life in situations where the type of service or characterization of discharge recieved has a bearing.

An Under Other Than Honorable (OTH) characterization of service is warranted when a member engages in conduct involving one or more acts or omissions that constitute a significant departure from the conduct expected of members of the military. An OTH characterization tends to be very prejudicial in civilian life in situations where the type of service rendered has a bearing, and might deprive the member of virtually all veteran's benefits based upon their enlistment.

An OTH is recieved for misconduct of some sort, and is normally a consequence of administrative separation for legal reasons. It is the least favorable of the non-punitive characterizations.

Is chp 11 an honorable discharge?

The way I was explained the condition of this Discharge, is that it is UNCHARACTERIZED, and most times "UNDER HONORABLE CONDITIONS", as to say Honorable and does not bar you from reentry into the Military after a due course of time. Supposedly, it can become honorable under certain conditions, mayhaps after 6 months of service with the Military. In some cases, as when a commendable soldier cannot pass a specific training, he/she can become eligible for the General "Under Honorable" Discharge, upon exiting the Military. After 6 Months of Military Service, one can become eligible for Veteran Status, gaining government due Veteran Benefits. SPC MEDINA
