    That sucks, sorry.

    Edit: without getting near more information they generally have waivers for just about anything and if not waived now maybe waived later.

    They asked and you told? It's ok, we understand.

    EDIT - seriously, good luck getting that straightened out and I hope everything works out for you.

    DADT is out. You really can go to sea as 600 men and come back as 300 couples now...or however many men are on a boat...or are women on subs now?..I can't imagine that not being awkward at times.

    You can get just about anything waived or otherwise fixed up these days when it comes to getting into the military. It might take some time, though, and you might need to try another branch.....perhaps one that recently dabbled in something called stop loss?

    I know, but the opportunity to still use this joke has greatly diminished. Thought I'd go to it one last time.

    Good call!

    Also eliminates the "act gay" easy out...though I guess people could still fake sleepwalking.

    I am 100% sure they will let you in the Marine Corps. We honestly do have a waiver for EVERYTHING!

    Most of us have done something dumb in our past, it shouldn't have to haunt you forever.

    If you really want it keep working at it. I will be on the lookout for "navy update 3" at some time.


    joke break

    Q: Why does the navy have marines on their ships?

    A: dance partners

    It was a marine that told me this joke, so don't kill me. (No, he wasn't a "dance partner")

    Depends how much you have "whiffed", body fat, and various other factors. Better to just not "whiff" someones second hand smoke. That is all I will say, I don't know the forum rules for an actual answer to this...Probably bad.

    I've got a tattoo of a barcode on the back of my neck which kept me out of the Marine Corps. The top at MEPS wouldn't give me a waiver even though I aced the asvab and physicals and trained other recruits at the recruiters station for close to a year.

    He said it was gang related since any tatoos at the time which are located on your (face, hands, neck, head), anything with writing and anything with numbers on it fit that category and I hit all three.

    Too bad for them I suppose.

    Well when all this gets worked out and you can get a waiver or get a better ruling on the matter I may just run into you when you make your way to boot. Seeing as how the Navy has reduced their NTC to only one facility and I work at that facility primarily on recruit side, there is a high probability for me to actually run into you. Hope to see you around.
