An honorable discharge can, on rare occasions, be granted to a former service member (whose service was characterized as less than honorable) as an act of clemency, should that person display exemplary post-service conduct and show evidence of outstanding post-service achievement in areas such as education and employment.

How Long Does it take for a general under honorable condition to upgrade to a honorable discharge?
It doesn't. The only way for a General (under honorable conditions) discharge to be upgraded is to go before the Board of appeals. Even then, your chances of getting an upgrade are slim (less than 1%) Even in the best of situations, if you did successfully appeal and get an upgrade, it would still be on your records because that (Honorable) was not the original characterization of discharge, and there is a code that identifies it as such. The above answer is partially correct. The characterization of service does not automatically upgrade to Honorable...ever. Members can apply to the Discharge Review Board (DRB) for their respective service to be considered for a change of characterization. Upgrades are few and far between.
Explain what it means to get an Honorable discharge with a pattern of misconduct?
Getting an Honorable discharge with a pattern of misconduct means that the service member's overall service record and performance have been positive, but there were instances of misconduct that were not severe enough to warrant a less favorable discharge. It reflects a mixed record of both good and poor behavior during the service but still results in the individual receiving an Honorable discharge.
How do you turn a bcd discharge to an honorable?
BCNR- Board of Corrections and Naval Review handles the changes to the discharges in the navy. The other branches have their own review boards. That being said its darn near futile to do it. There has to be misconduct on the government or people involved to get a BCD upgraded. It is not automatically upgraded to honorable. The case has to go up for review each time you want an upgrade.
How hard is it to upgrade a general discharge under honorable conditions to an honorable discharge from the military?
Most discharges can be upgraded depending on the veterans conducts.99% of the time when a veteran gets a General Under Honorable its considered good enough for the the revue board.That veteran is Entitle to all benifits!The Marines being discharged with less then Honorable will run into a stone wall due to the fact that that branch does frownes on upgrading any discharges!They feel they deserved what the got! The Navy Discharge Review Board (NDRB) reviews applications from Sailors and Marines seeking upgrades to their characterization of service and/or change to their narrative reason for separation. Regardless of characterization recieved, the applicant must prove inequity or impropriety in their separation process. Upgrades are fairly rare because very few applicant's present clear issues to show impropriety or inequity.
Can same-sex marriage result in an honorable discharge from the military?
No. Whereas during the US military's "Don't Ask Don't Tell" policy, it would be viewed as a violation and cause for discharge, that policy was repealed effective September 20, 2011. Since the repeal of Don't Ask Don't Tell (DADT), homosexual conduct is not a reason to be separated. If someone was discharged under DADT, and did not recieve an Honorable characterization of service, they can apply to have this upgraded. The Navy Discharge Review Board (NDRB) is expediting these applications. If no misconduct was involved, the characterization will change to Honorable, the narrative reason for separation will change to Secretarial Authority, and the re-enlistment (RE) code will change to an appropriate RE-1 code for the service (USN or USMC).
How do you get a General Discharge upgraded to Honorable?
You may apply to have your characterization of service changed to Honorable by filling out a DD-293 and submitting the application to the Discharge Review Board (DRB) for your service. Applicants are entitled to two reviews within 15 years of their discharge date. One is a document review where the DRB examines your records along with any supporting documentation you provide to support your case. The second is a personal appearance hearing before the DRB in Washington DC in which you can make your case in person. Upgrades are never automatic, and are actually fairly rare. Applications are reviewed based on the propriety (legality) and equity (fairness) of the discharge received. You must submit clear, decisive issues for the board to consider, and you must support any claims with documentation. Having an expert assist you with the process is highly recommended in order to maximize your chances of success. There are a few organizations who provide solid, free support to veterans. The American Legion does a good job for free. There is also a Facebook page which which is very helpful.
