simply have to wonder about this. It really sounds like someone dropped the ball. If he was a legal member of the armed forces for more than 180 days he should, according to the UCMJ be entitled to any and all benefits. Unless he was subjected to a less than honorable discharge for something that he was personally responsible for.
Also, if he was being discharged because he was now a sole survivor he could have applied for a waiver. I needed a waiver because I was a sole surviving son of a veteran killed in action. It just was not that difficult to get.
I think that there probably is more to this than what is being released.
