Legal Question in Military Law in Florida

Discharge upgrade

I was discharged from the Navy in 1983. I was young, married and immature. My wife left me for another sailor, I went AWOL. I turned myself in. Another sailor was dealing LSD on the ship. I knew him. So I was implicated in the mess. I did no wrong but plea guilty to selling too a NIS agent. My JAG at my SCM said that there was no evidence that I sold to the agent. I plead guilty to the charges anyway, just to get out. Is there any chance now I could get my discharge upgraded? I was messed up and young. Now I am older, hold down a good job and have not been in any trouble. I think that I deserve the truth to come out and to have my discharge upgraded. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
