What do you think a recruiter would do after he found out his applicant was on probation?

Believe me, the recruiter already know's. Those are the types of people the military want's. They already have a headstart on fighting and shooting, soo that part they don't have to train them for.

The key is that probation is a means to monitor the individuals behavior over a period of time. It is not impossible for the recruiter to prove to a judge or probation officer that the military will become accountable for your behavior and therefore earn your release from the probation program for reasons of enlistment.

Depends on the Judge, the DA's office and the character of the person wanting to join (as well as the crime).

One of my best lifelong friends had a situation like this back about 1958 or so (maybe later), he got in the Army did well,

was a Medal Of Honor Recipient. (Vietnam)

His recruiter really worked for him, talked to the DA and Judge in LA, California. The kind of recruiter that we need and we do have many like him.

They remained friends for many years!

PS

Navy Recruiter of the Year is from my Colorado.

The recruiter can make some LIMITED execptions, and get a waiver for someone on probation. The best thing to do is tell them now. They may be able to help you. You can't get in trouble. You can only get in trouble if you ship to training, and then they find out. The best thing to do is be honest.

I would be more worried about what will happen when the probation officer comes looking for you. The military will return you for the fulfillment of your sentence. Break probation & serve your original sentence.

The recruiter could see if your probation can be lifted for you to enter the service, or they may reschedule your entry date, but not until they verify the case.

So?? The military lifestyle is better for him than probation. Years ago judges gave people the choice of jail or the military.

That depends on how he finds out. Which he will! Don't let it be discovered up at Meps. Be fair to your recruiter, they work thier tails off, all hours of the day. It also depends on what your on PBN for & how many strings they can pull. Save yourself & him the azz chewing from 'top' by telling him ASAP.

I think the recruiter would try to cover it up and get the guy recruited any way that he could.

The U.S. government wants you dead, blown up by road side bombs in Iraq or just shot in Afghanistan. they don't care who gets killed, it's a mess.

When you get home you can deal with the depleted uranium because the veterans benefits wont be there.

Would'nt think it would matter.If the applicant is willing to serve.It's thier decision
