The question was about enlisting. No mention of a security clearance until you brought it up.
Last time I checked, nukes required security clearances. We had kids of foreign nationals in my power school class (one from china, one from south korea, one from puerto ricol). I asked because I was curious if he was an american citizen. american citizens can always enlist unless they are disqualified through some other means, medical or other wise.
edit: please note. I'll spell how I want to spell. Thanks. Its common knowledge enlisting shortens your time to citizenship. I served in the navy. I've met plenty of non citizens. Why in god's name would you spend that much time writing that much just to pick at me???
edit 2: I spent 6 of my 8 years prior to enlisting in england/germany if that's pertinent for you.
I assumed since this was posted in the navy section of 'nukeworker' that this was about enlisting as a nuke.
tad pole, you know I dont like you, but I agree with you here. Still, save your breath and go enjoy your free time. You leave this sunday, you should be out chasing girls and getting in trouble while you can, not arguing with bitter old men.
