Which discharge action cannot be reversed by the BCMRs?

The option indicating that changing an administrative discharge cannot be reversed by the Board for Correction of Military Records (BCMRs) is correct because BCMRs have specific mandates and limitations regarding the types of discharges they can review and potentially alter. Administrative discharges often involve cases where a service member might have been separated for reasons related to conduct, performance, or other administrative issues that do not rise to the level of a court-martial.

While BCMRs can review cases involving administrative discharges, they often have limited power in terms of making substantive changes or decisions that might affect the underlying reasons for the discharge. Furthermore, if the administrative discharge was executed properly in accordance with regulations, it may be difficult for the BCMR to find justification to reverse or change that action.

On the other hand, other types of discharges, such as dishonorable or medical discharges, typically have clearer criteria for revision. For instance, dishonorable discharges are far more serious in nature and can lead to significant penalties, but the BCMR might assess factors such as injustice or error that could warrant changing that classification.
