Everyone who enlists in any service has an 8 year obligation. Depending on the branch, either 2,3,4 years active duty, and the remainder of the 8 years IRR (Individual Ready Reserve), unless you voluntarily join a Reserve unit. So yeah, once he was discharged, he had 4 years left in the Reserve unless his discharge was less than honorable.
I think his discharge is simply listed as "discharged". He went AWOL three or four times and was still a private after 4 years.

He's going to skate on this because he has said that he is a "Vietnam times" vet; he let everyone else assume he went to Vietnam, so that's going to be his "out" - wait and see.
Andy, He stated he was a Vietnam veteran. He is quoted in a 2008 article in "Indian County Today" --
Phillips also described coming back to the U.S. as a veteran from Vietnam. “People called me a baby killer and a hippie girl spit on me.”
He also did an interview in which he described being a "recon ranger".
He was a reservist who never left the US. He's poseur and should be listed in "Stolen Valor"
If you search for the 2008 article in "Indian Country Today" the original article was altered on January 22, 2019 to reflect Phillips' current spin of "Vietnam times", but there is a link to the archived article available . I am posting a link with a video by retired Navy seal Don Shipley about Phillips' DD-214, but be warned if you want to hear about Phillips' DD-214 there's some vulgar language in it so view at your own risk.

Language Warning for embedded video.
