    What kind of benefits or rights are you talking about? Veterans benefits? No.

    If it's service related - and he can prove that - it should be covered. The only way to know for sure is to contact the VA.

    When a person is dishonorably discharged they sometimes "sign off" in order to avoid being criminally prosecuted. Did he do that?

    (My best friend works for the VA.)
