<p>
Because you answered that your discharge was related to
posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or other mental health
conditions, the DoD will apply “liberal consideration” to your case.
In 2014, the DoD recognized that many Veterans had received
discharges due to behavior connected to their previously undiagnosed
or undocumented PTSD or mental health condition.

case RESPONSES.REASON_TBI:
return (
<p>
Because you answered that your discharge was related to a traumatic
brain injury (TBI), the DoD will apply “liberal consideration” to
your case. In 2014, the DoD recognized that many Veterans had
received discharges due to behavior connected to their previously
undiagnosed or undocumented TBI.

<p>
Because you answered that your discharge was due to your sexual
orientation, the DoD encourages you to apply for an upgrade. In
2011, the DoD recognized that many Veterans received discharges
only because of their sexual orientation. <br />{' '}
<strong>Note:</strong> You must prove that your discharge was
solely due to your sexual orientation and events specifically
related to it. If the events leading to your discharge were
unrelated, you may still receive an upgrade, but you’ll have to
argue that your discharge was unjust punishment for those events.

<p>
Many Veterans have received general or honorable discharges due to
their sexual orientation, and simply want references to sexual
orientation removed from their DD214s, or want the ability to
re-enlist. This is a relatively straightforward application.

case RESPONSES.REASON_SEXUAL_ASSAULT:
return (
<p>
Because you answered that your discharge was related to sexual
assault or harassment, the DoD will apply “liberal consideration” to
your case. In 2017, the DoD recognized that many Veterans had
received discharges due to sexual assault or harassment, and had
unfairly received less than honorable discharges.{' '}
<strong>Note:</strong> You must prove that your discharge was solely
the result of sexual assault or harassment and events specifically
related to it. If the events leading to your discharge were
unrelated, you may still receive an upgrade, but you’ll have to
argue that your discharge was unjust punishment for those events.
