I'm sure you did as a First Sergeant.  I can only imagine.

He may have gotten one of the "other than honorable".  IIRC, those have 
to be reviewed in order to see if you'd qualify for your VA benefits 
after being unceremoniously booted out like that.

I did know one particuarly messed up recruit that did wind up in the 
stockade.  He was given "other than honorable" and wound up driving a 
taxi in Lawton (OK).  I happened to get into his cab once and he told me 
that he was treated better behind bars than he was when he was in basic 
training!
