National Guard has a different set of rules on how they play the discharge game. I don't know what your particular code is but a General, Under Honorable Conditions, usually permits re-enlistment unless it is for a very specific set of offenses, like homosexuality. Your re code has a bit to do with it, though since it is low. Best bet is to try your recruiter and bring all the paperwork you have. Let them explain things to you and make it clear that you're determined to join and want their help. They will do everything possible to help you.
