I figure with the possibility of the wars heating up, now would a good time to prepare lit/resources to demoralize military memebers and give advice on how to get out early.
Any one got any materials or links related to this?
Edit: found this which might be useful for legal avenues of quitting early
Does the Conscientious Objector reason not exist anymore?
I'd imagine it's harder to pull off after you've joined. But I'm curious about this too.
I guess what I'm really looking for are accounts of people quitting the military before their time is up, without suffering extreme consequences
Anecdotal, but I was given a general discharge after failing a piss test and having a run in with a psych eval. G.I. Bill benefits were off the table, but nobody has ever given a shit about my dd214
My take on it is that people can change their minds or join a certain religion even after joining so they have to allow for people to do that. It does bar one from ever rejoining but I don't think that'd be a concern for this group.
Honestly, I don't know much about it. When you're in, it'd be unlikely you'd hear much about it. It's definitely not a sure thing. Interesting little article that popped up searching on it.
I honestly thought that would be allowed as I can't think of a reason someone would have the religious belief and also sign up.
I mean, I could see why they wouldn't. After all, that's the thing they really want you for. Can't have you signing up for a job and benefits just to bail when they when they need you to be expendable.
