The Marine Corp kept me out of prison, I was homeless, had a pregnant girlfriend, no highschool diploma, life going nowhere......I called a recruiter, he helped me get my GED, and got me in the Marines.......saved my life.

thats fucked upCant land a job because of his criminal background. I know its a policy in most major companies, but he became a Marine AFTER his shady days, and even won the award of Marine of the year.... sorry to you US soldiers who sworn to protect the US. War Vets or not, THATS the thanks you get. And its unfair

@danning1 I enlisted in August of 2011. No branches were waiving felonies. Things do change all the time, though. They are really strict on bringing people who were in gangs though. They won't accept anyone with gang tattoos or anything that is offensive towards a group.

@Ihateopp I know they waived that restriction during the second Gulf War. Did they reinstate it after our troops left Iraq? I hope not, it might be some kids' last chance in life. Won't always work but when it does it's wonderful.

@LightoftheFather People who in the Marines that do drugs get Dishonorably discharged. if you do it before and you stopped, you may be able to get in but once in and you do a crime, it better be a traffic ticket

@Ihateopp Thank You!

@LightoftheFather This story must be pretty damn old, because they don't let people like him in anymore. You can't have any felonies.

@bloodshot738 Good luck man. Focus on schoolwork and getting that diploma, because its a long wait.

[MIKEL0352]

@bloodshot738 Well, long story short...I had been kicked out of my dads house, had nothing....I walked into a recruiting office and told my recuiter I had nothing and needed something to turn my life around.......he gave me the GED work packet, and would let me study at the office....he put me up in a motel for a couple weeks and helped me out with food......took me to the testing center and when I got my GED, took me down to MEPS and put me in the Corps.
