Need to complain

[ClamSmasher22]

My recruiter told me to lie about some stuff I was never arrested for too. Don't know how the army is but the Corps was packed full of people with questionable backgrounds and morals. I came out much better for it.

I always assumed that recruiters took anyone that applied and tried to get them in, regardless of any issues that may disqualify them. What's the worst that happens, they get turned down at the MEPS?

When you got quotas to meet for a job that pays shit compared to it's civilian equivalent, what kind of people do you think that attracts?

At best, the soldier makes something of them selves. Usually they just waist a lot of people's time as you eventually go through the pain in the ass process to push them out with an other than honorable discharge. At worst, shit bags get people killed.

Might I add, I went through basic with three Soldiers that were convicted felons, one of witch was an armed robbery charge.

My recruiter before I joined the marines asked me when the last time I smoked marijuana was. I told him it was 2 weeks ago (when really it was like 2 days ago) and he took me to our local smoke shop and bought me stuff to drink so I could pass the test. So I passed and served. Not everyone who has prior offenses would make a bad soldier even they fought for what they believe in.
