The act of removing someone from official duty or position; the reversal of a commission.
From dis- (reversal) + commission (from Latin commissio, 'act of entrusting'). This creates a formal term for withdrawing or canceling an official appointment or authorization.
While a 'commission' puts you in charge (like a naval officer's commission), 'discommission' strips it all away—it's the military equivalent of being fired, but sounds way more official and unavoidable.
