Re: I need advice for my husband
No much unfortunately unless the AF is willing to give him an "Entry Level Separation" discharge. The enlistment papers he signed are a binding legal contract, and so a person does not have the legal right to just "quit."
If he has not seen a mental health counselor, make sure he does so ASAP, to both document his issues and to get some counseling in how to deal with all of this. If the counsel thinks the problem is severe enough to justify a discharge, then they can make a recommendation to the Commander for a discharge.
Good luck to you both.
