Re: discharge upgrade

It sounds like you may need to perform a Military Records Correction request. My office handles Military Records Correction Issues. You may have some options; however, I need to know more details to better assess the situation.

Feel free to contact me if you would like to set up an initial consultation, free of charge. If we set up an appointment, I'd be happy to initiate the call in order to save you in long distance charges.
