Reading through this thread just reaffirms my decision years agone to have bailed on the pre-enlistment program. My own recruiter lied to me most several things and everything felt wrong. The Navy is total of unscrupulous characters.

Letting the Recruiter pressure you lot into lying and then coming clean at MEPS had no possibility of a skilful outcome.

I was a Navy Recruiting Supervisor for fifteen years and interviewed every applicant prior to going to MEPS to ensure they were not lying and ensure that my Recruiters had not pressured them to lie. If they told me that all of their paperwork was authentic and that they were not lying, and then went to MEPS and came clean almost something then had lied near...I had no sympathy for them.

They would get disqualified and then come asking for consideration to which I would explain that they had their chance to come clean with me, when we could accept fixed it, merely at this signal the damage was washed.

Something else that happens a lot on Recruiting that Recruiters take the heat for...anybody knows someone that thinks they are an expert most the military. A father, blood brother, uncle, cousin, etc... The family military expert instructs the bidder to "keep your oral cavity close". When they crack under pressure at MEPS or Kick Army camp a lot of times they say their Recruiter told them to lie because they feel that will give them the all-time chance of recovering from their prevarication.

I'm not maxim Recruiters don't ever passenger vehicle applicants, I'k just proverb that your honesty is starting time and foremost your responsibility.

I wish you lot the best of luck. I would also recommend y'all contact them and make them provide information on your status.

cheers for getting your outlook onto it especially someone who was in military recruiting for a while. Didn't cleft only was honest when asked. Went into his boss's office earlier left for MEPS, station commander, and fabricated himself clear that he was not a recruiter but while debriefing me virtually MEPS he told me to lie while I was in that location. Recruiter told me zero virtually MEPS nor to lie while I was there. Asked the same questions as recruiter that could exist big bargain similar drugs or arrested which I empathise. I was kinda assuming that it wasn't a large deal with everything I disclosed with the recruiter. He didn't mind and was kinda shocked when I faxed over all the paperwork that he wanted well-nigh it later I went to MEPS. They don't know what I told them at MEPS after XO told me to keep quiet if asked nigh it with recruiter and his commander. Told him they want paperwork and that'due south information technology. I don't know what is considered a prevarication or told it would exist fine and my stupid said "okay". Fabricated my situation clear and told him about it and briefly as I can exist. If I fabricated my life more difficult because of it then and then exist information technology. Heck might exist dq'd. I feel that it was a misunderstanding between me and him and needs to be cleaned up. Or if he did to endeavor and run into his quota because he hasn't processed anyone inside a few months than fine just let'southward exercise it right though. The medical disembalm which I understanding at present tin can be pdq but in that location is a modest chance I can make it. I know honesty has its cost simply at least I wouldn't go far trouble for fraud enlistment when they pull education/medical status upwards. At present I understand something stupidly small don't have to worry about but if something huge over a span of the bidder'southward life than yes large bargain. The situation had a lot of paperwork under my proper noun inside the past couple of years. Not looking for sympathy but somebody to assist me get the correct paperwork even if that means going to a dissimilar office or waiting so be it. Not a life long dream to become a Marine and will exist showtime in my family to join the military. Only I did tell the recruiter he volition get everything and I hateful everything volition be given and volition expect over it together to see what is a huge deal or not. So now he has everything in which it was faxed over. So I'one thousand going to phone call him in a few days to see what else I can do to brand information technology correct. If it was meant to be and so I volition join the Marine Corps but if not oh well, C'est la vie I estimate.

Perception is reality, I believe this statement. You inquire ten people Ane thing, they will requite you x different answers. I am not the i who would question other people'due south reality, or story, it is none of my business.

ALL I said was

a Fraudulent enlistment tin be a felony (It is a full general statement, no more/less)

Just because one never saw or heard everyone arrested for Fraudulent enlistment, does non mean this Law does not exist.

Still, my situation is case-by-example and I won't be upset if I am pdq only it would be good to know. If the situation was smaller like I utilize to have vitamins than I would of mined not talking about it nor mentioning it at MEPS but this situation has a lot under the microscope. Like I said this status was bigger than everyone else and there are many loops to find. If you find one document yous can see a lot of other documents. My friend who was a drill sergeant is saying I did the right thing and aforementioned with a lot of other people. Other saying I ****ed upwards. I rather become DQ versus discharged. My question is should I just stay with the recruiter or not because I am very unsure if he is willing to help me out or not. I called him the other twenty-four hour period to say I handed him everything that is under the ****ing lord's day and now I take to wait. I don't know if I should wait to telephone call him or non.

Honestly I can't answer these questions, I feel all the answers you got or will become are all pure speculation.

I don't know which information you lot decided to exist honest nigh and the recruiter asked you to say "no". I completely sympathise that you don't want to reveal likewise much information nearly yourself on the internet (which is a wise decision by the way) Then at this indicate, if I were you, I'd patiently wait for the consequence because you have gone to MEPS. If you really want to, go to recruiter's office and check on the status, don't worry about pissing him off, yous are non responsible to save his career, and you probably will never see him again the rest of your life. What's washed is washed, no need to wonder about the could've should've anymore.
Plus, Recruiters have quotas and, The recruiter will probably just say that you misinterpreted what you were told. I highly doubtfulness he would be in some kind of serious problem.

You decided to be honest when yous went to MEPS, yous made the correct determination. If you lie to become into the Marine Corps, your lies will find y'all out. Be honest and truthful, and in most cases, you will be approved to enlist. The only potential issue hither is the lack of consistency, in the cease, information technology might be resolved, they either accept you or they disqualify you, either way, you lot still have the peace of your mind. Plus, y'all don't want to exist in bootcamp for x corporeality of time for zip.

I searched around and plant something MIGHT BE helpful to you, hopefully you will get the skilful result.

Recruiter telling me to lie about my tonsillectomy? [Archive] - Marine Corps - USMC Community

Oh, forgot to add, my blood brother and my fiance are both quondam Marines, their view near recruiters is simply this, "Did recruiter prevarication, omit the full truth, or simply didn't know the whole situation? Who knows? You have to cover your own behind." Next fourth dimension, asked him, "you asked me to do this, can y'all put this in writing." If he couldn't, then don't follow the "simply lie about it" communication. I will simply leave it at that.

I suspect that yous'll never hear about the good recruiters merely I know of several. We accept a cracking example in the forum who has ***alway*** gone higher up and beyond to offer advice to those who have issues. I guarantee you our local expert isn't getting rich either from merely coming together goals.

That wasn't the only thing that happened, but it was the simply thing applicable to this thread.

I can't give y'all whatsoever more rep, then I thought I'd just concur and add one thing.

The Regular army is loaded with former Marines. I'd always inquire ones who worked for me if they were Soldiers or "erstwhile Marines". It showed where their true loyalties lay and assisted in my determination of where their careers went.
