Incorrect.

The various levels of discharge are as follows:

Honorable
General under Honorable Conditions
Other than Honorable
Bad Conduct Discharge
Dishonorable

The first two satisfy the statute as both are honorable conditions.

The OP likely has an OTH (other than honorable) discharge, and that does not satisfy the statute.

The OP has been out of the military for more than 15 years. He cannot simply file a DD293 and request a review of discharge or dismissal. After 15 years, he would have to request a full review of and change to his military record.

In other words, the OP needs to hire a military lawyer and his chances of getting that changed are slim, and expensive.
