Turns out “Nathan Phillips” isn’t even the name the left wing clown went by when he joined the Marines in 1972. He registered as Nathaniel Richard Stanard. His discharge papers show not only that he went AWOL three times, but that he was NOT honorably discharged, just discharged. What’s the difference?

Honorable Discharge
If a military service member received a good or excellent rating for their service time, by exceeding standards for performance and personal conduct, they will be discharged from the military honorably. An honorable military discharge is a form of administrative discharge.
General Discharge
A General military discharge is a form of administrative discharge. If a service member’s performance is satisfactory but the individual failed to meet all expectations of conduct for military members, the discharge is considered a General Discharge, Under Honorable Conditions. To receive a General Discharge from the military there has to be some form of nonjudicial punishment to correct unacceptable military behavior or failure to meet military standards. The discharging officer must give the reason for the discharge in writing, and the military member must sign paperwork stating they understand the reason for their discharge. Veterans may not be eligible for certain veterans benefits under a General Discharge, including the GI Bill.
These are Nathan Phillips aka discharged papers, showing he went AWOL three times and his general discharge.
Don Shipley got the DD-214.
