WASHINGTON—Vice President Joe Biden ’s son Hunter was discharged from the Navy Reserve this year after testing positive for cocaine, according to people familiar with the matter.

Hunter Biden, a lawyer by training who is now a managing partner at an investment company, had been commissioned as an ensign in the Navy Reserve, a part-time position. But after failing a drug test last year, his brief military career ended.

Mr. Biden, 44 years old, decided to pursue military service relatively late, beginning the direct-commission process to become a public-affairs officer in the Navy Reserve in 2012. Because of his age—43 when he was to be commissioned—he needed a waiver to join the Navy. He received a second Navy waiver because of a drug-related incident when he was a young man, according to people familiar with the matter. Military officials say such drug waivers aren’t uncommon.

Mr. Biden was commissioned as an ensign on May 7, 2013, and assigned to Navy Public Affairs Support Element East in Norfolk, Va., a reserve unit, according to the Navy. In June 2013, after reporting to his unit in Norfolk, he was given a drug test, which turned up positive for cocaine, according to people familiar with the situation. Mr. Biden was discharged in February, the Navy said

Yeah I guess Hunter is a real tard because of this.

He is an attorney, a managing partner at an investment company along with an extremely impressive military career.
If he was my son I would definitely STILL be proud of him.

News flash SF... drugs and addictions creep in to people of all walks of life.

To judge them as a person based on failing a drug test shows you to be shallow.

Even more so because you wouldn't be posting the same about a republican.

So more so than shallow you areRazz That's close to being lower than a snakes ass. More so than close.Laughing

LOL. Only TVguy can say a guy dishonorably discharged from the military had an impressive career. He probably feels that Benedict Arnold and Bo Bergdahl also had impressive military careers. Fool.

BTW Fool, why don't you show me where anyone said he got a dishonorable discharge?

Types of Military Discharge
Military Discharge

There are five types of military discharge, and every single military member experiences one of them. The quality of one’s active duty service determines the type of discharge he or she receives. The five military discharges are general, honorable, other than honorable, bad conduct and dishonorable.

General Discharge

General denotes that a service member completed his or her service with less than honorable circumstances during duty or upon discharge. Conditions such as illness, injury or other determinants lead to a general discharge. An unacceptable behavior such as drug abuse initiates a general discharge as well.

A commander makes known the reason for a general discharge in writing. People tend to equate a general discharge with an honorable one. However, general discharges actually deem many veterans ineligible for certain benefits such as the GI Bill.

Honorable Discharge

Honorable is a like a grade of A plus. The service member completed his or her duty with admirable personal and professional conduct. Ones with an honorable discharge receive full benefits. They also have an easier time finding employment since an honorable discharge reflects well on a resume.

Bad Conduct

Bad Conduct discharge is a punishment for a military crime. It results in confinement to a military prison for a short period of time. No benefits are available to veterans with a bad conduct discharge.

Dishonorable Discharge

A dishonorable discharge is also a punitive action against a military member. Serious offenses such as murder or desertion of one’s duty will cause a court martial to order a dishonorable discharge.

Like a convicted felon, veterans with a dishonorable discharge do not receive many privileges to benefits, possession of firearms and so on. They are ostracized from the military community and will have a hard time finding employment.

Other Than Honorable (OTH) Discharge

A judgment of OTH discharge occurs when a military member is in trouble with the civilian court system, for reasons like a felony conviction leading to imprisonment. OTH is the most severe of the administrative discharges because people with OTH are banned from ever reenlisting into the army or any other part of the Armed Forces. OTH recipients do not receive VA healthcare or most benefits provided through the VA.

I never said it was a dishonorable discharge. For edification, I simply posted an informative list of types of discharges. It certainly seems OTH fits in this situation.

Why wouldn't this fit in this general discharge category?

A general discharge is given to a service member who has completed their service in the military. Biden did not do so.

Whatever.
Another privileged person gets sucked down by addictive drugs, chasing a high that only happens once,
Countless people from all walks of life allow themselves to get trapped by this stuff. God only knows why.
So we know he has a problem with drugs. We don't know if that has defined his character in all other facets of his life. Maybe. Maybe not. My own view is I don't want a drug user, former or active, in any position of responsibility that might effect the "general welfare".

And that it's Biden's son is of little consequence. A dad is a dad is a dad and he no doubt has a blind spot about his own kid. Many of us share that "spot".

This will die. It should.

I've NEVER heard of anyone getting a "dishonorable discharge over their drug use.

Sf stated Hunter Biden was dishonorably discharged from the military and in the same sentence called ME a fool.
This fool isn't pulling anything out of my ass and posting it as a fact.
