I figure with the possibility of the wars heating up, now would a good time to prepare lit/resources to demoralize military memebers and give advice on how to get out early.

Any one got any materials or links related to this?

Edit: found this which might be useful for legal avenues of quitting early

I'd imagine it's harder to pull off after you've joined. But I'm curious about this too.

I guess what I'm really looking for are accounts of people quitting the military before their time is up, without suffering extreme consequences

Anecdotal, but I was given a general discharge after failing a piss test and having a run in with a psych eval. G.I. Bill benefits were off the table, but nobody has ever given a shit about my dd214

My take on it is that people can change their minds or join a certain religion even after joining so they have to allow for people to do that. It does bar one from ever rejoining but I don't think that'd be a concern for this group.
