    He has to be completely done with the court system, meaning probation is complete and fines are paid before the Army would even look at him.

    I've heard you can join the Army, but not the Air Force. Talk to a recruiter about it.

    yes, they'll take just about anyone now. have fun in Iraq.

  4. Floss says:

    Sure can. As long as his case is closed. I went through it myself.

  5. T says:

    Yes. But the Army will come down harder on him if he gets another one while serving. Hopefully Basic Training will teach him some discipline and responsibility.

    I know that the Marine corp might not take you. You would have to go talk to them first. But i do know that the Army might take. You need go talk to which ever branch your son was thinking about going in.
