I was given an re-4 code a few years ago after being discharged from the navy. Im my eyes that was a harsh code for someones first offense. Honestly i was surprised they actually discharged me. I miss everything about it. I need help on what to do, like what steps do i need to take or who i need to talk to about getting it changed? Any help or advice would be great.

Honestly you need to appeal to your branch to get your RE-4 waived. If not you are pretty much screwed as I don't think anyone will even entertain you with that code. You can talk to a recruiter as it doesn't hurt, but honestly don't get your hopes up. It takes a lot to get out on a RE-4 code so there might be more to the story than you are saying.

1. Your opinion of the matter doesn't matter. 2. 1st Offense- 15th offense- UCMJ does not differentiate-You can be punished just as hard for 1 as you could the 3rd. 3. It takes a large chunk of the Command to discharge you, not just 1 or 2 officers. 4. You see a recruiter- see if you are eligible for a waiver or not and go from there.

Army National Guard should be able to take you. But DO NOT, take it for granted! Most branches will take your last period of service. So, go GUARD pull your head out of where it is and do the right thing.
