Question
I was discharged from the Marine Corps with an OTH. I received this for violating art 112A, Drugs. I'm past that stage of my life and wonder if the government could possibly have any further jobs in which that record would actually help me. Other than 1 violation I had a untarnished career.
I'm not sure I understand the question?????
I don't know about "government jobs." That's not my expertise. I can tell you that the chances of re-entering the military with an OTH discharge is almost non-existent.
Hope this helps!
