Will a general under honorable discharge show up on a background check?

Question

I received a general under honorable discharge in a special court martial, i served 1 month in confinement on base for use of ecstasy. I have been searching for an answer and some people say it will show up on a civilian background check and some people say that it won't. So which is it? im about to apply for a job and i dont' know what to put down. please help

Answer 1

As a background screening professional, we do not have access to military records.  It will not show up on a civilian background check.  Only cases that were adjudicated in a public court will be discovered.

Answer 2

probably depends on how long ago it was, you could call your local employment office and ask
