Dishonorable is worse than OTH, but a Bad Conduct Discharge is the worst, I think. In the navy we sarcastically call it a Big Chicken Dinner. LIke "He's lucky, he got himself a big chicken dinner". ;)
Thanks...
By the way, when I was in the second grade we lived in Norfolk. Our neighbor was a Naval Commander. he gave my family the Grand Tour of his ship one day.
My father, jokester that he was, gave me very specific instructions.
So as we are touring the ship, gullible little me says:
"Mr. (to me he was a Mr., not a Commander) Neville, I like your boat!"
Can't remember his reaction, but our families were close, so imagine everyone got a ha-ha out of it.
After all of these years (I am 50 now) the only thing I remember about that day is how small the doorways were inside the ship. I remember thinking I would hate to have to duck everytime I walked through a doorway. It's funny what sticks in a kid's mind, I can see that doorway in my mind like it was yesterday.
