  1. Probably discharged, but that would be funny to see though, just think about it, them yelling at you, and you can't help it and you yell back or say some obscene things.  


  2. Tourett's Syndrome is disqualifying for entry. So, if the symptoms manifest themselves after enlistment you are given a general discharge under honorable conditions for a pre-existing disqualifying medical conditions and a re-enlistment code of RE-4 which prevents your ever entering the military in the future.

    The source below is the medical standard for this condition.
