OPINION and ORDER
Defendant has filed a Motion for Summary Dismissal arguing that Plaintiffs Complaint1 *314fails to allege a claim within this Court’s jurisdiction. Specifically, Defendant asserts that Plaintiff’s claim is time barred under the statute of limitations imposed by 28 U.S.C. § 2501. Plaintiff comes before this Court challenging the validity of his 1961 military discharge and asserts that the six year statute of limitations provided by 28 U.S.C. § 2501 does not apply to his claims.
After review of all the pleadings, the Court hereby GRANTS the Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss.
FACTS
Plaintiff alleges that sometime in 1961 on the Island of Okinawa he faced a General Court Martial on the charge of being Absent Without Leave (AWOL). Compl. 3. Plaintiff makes a number of procedural challenges to the “unlawful process” of the “general court martial body” that sentenced him to six months hard labor, forfeiture of all pay, and a bad conduct discharge (BCD). Id. at 4. Specifically, Plaintiff alleges primarily that he was denied “the right to trial counsel at a general court martial” but also that he was not informed that he had the right to appeal, he did not receive a copy of the trial transcript, he was not informed he could have “some enlisted personal on my court martial panel,” and he was not offered an “opportunity for allocution.” Id. Plaintiff alleges that he did not receive “the type of counsel mandated by title 10 § 827” even though he was represented by a “green 2nd Lieutenant Motor Pool Officer with no legal training whatsoever.” Id. For his alleged “unlawful” discharge, Plaintiff requests this Court to order the U.S. Marine Corps2 to issue him an honorable discharge, with back pay and interest.
DISCUSSION
This Court holds the pleadings of pro se plaintiffs to “less stringent standards than formal pleadings drafted by lawyers.” Haines v. Kerner, 404 U.S. 519, 520, 92 S.Ct. 594, 30 L.Ed.2d 652 (1972). Therefore, as a pro se Plaintiff, this Court will construe Plaintiffs filings liberally. See Cosma-Nelms v. United States, 72 Fed.Cl. 170, 172 (2006). The standard of review for a motion to dismiss is whether, if accepting all the allegations of the complaint as true and drawing all inferences in favor of the plaintiff, it is evident that plaintiff is not entitled to relief. Celotex Corp. v. Catrett, 477 U.S. 317, 327, 106 S.Ct. 2548, 91 L.Ed.2d 265 (1986).
Under 28 U.S.C. § 2501 (2006), “[e]very claim of which the United States Court of Federal Claims has jurisdiction shall be barred unless the petition thereon is filed within six years after such claim first accrues.” This Court has established that a “claim accrues when all events have occurred that fix the alleged liability of the Government and entitle the plaintiff to institute an action.” Creppel v. United States, 41 F.3d 627, 631 (Fed.Cir.1994) (quoting Japanese War Notes Claimants Ass’n v. United States, 373 F.2d 356, 358 (1967); Warren v. United States, 74 Fed.Cl. 723, 725 (2006)). In the context of a military discharge for back pay, the six year statute of limitations begins to run when the individual is discharged from the military. Martinez v. United States, 333 F.3d 1295, 1303 (Fed.Cir.2003) (“[Tjhis court and the Court of Claims have long held that the plaintiffs cause of action for back pay accrues at the time of the plaintiffs discharge.”).
In the instant case, Plaintiff was discharged from the U.S. Marine Corps in 1961. Therefore, Plaintiffs claim should have been filed no later than sometime in 1967. See 28 U.S.C. § 2501 (2006). Plaintiff advances the argument, however, that the six year statute of limitations should not apply. Plaintiff reasons that the court martial did not have jurisdiction over him because he was not properly represented by counsel and his resulting discharge was not valid. This, however, does not toll the state of limitations. See, e.g., Cooper v. United States, 47 Fed.Cl. 115, 118 (2000) (holding that a claim based on improper discharge, including an assertion of ineffective counsel, was barred by the six year statute of limitations). Further, be*315cause Plaintiff waited almost forty years after his discharge to bring his claim, the Court finds that Plaintiff did not bring his claim diligently so as to allow for equitable tolling. See Warren, 74 Fed.Cl. at 726; Irwin v. Dept. of Veterans Affairs, 498 U.S. 89, 96, 111 S.Ct. 458, 112 L.Ed.2d 435 (1990) (“[The Supreme Court] has allowed equitable tolling in situations where the claimant has actively pursued his judicial remedies ... [The Supreme Court] has generally been much less forgiving in receiving late filings where the claimant failed to exercise due diligence in preserving his legal rights.”).
Thus, Plaintiffs claims fall outside the six year jurisdictional limitation on this Court’s jurisdiction. Therefore, Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss must be granted.
CONCLUSION
For the reasons laid out above, Plaintiffs claim falls outside the six year statute of limitations provided by 28 U.S.C. § 2501. Therefore, this Court lacks jurisdiction to hear Plaintiffs claim and it must be dismissed. The Court hereby GRANTS Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss and directs the Clerk to DISMISS WITHOUT PREJUDICE Plaintiffs Complaint.
It is so ORDERED.
