Round 2 here...
In Jan 05 I decided I wanted to apply for the nuke program in the Navy. I spoke with a recruiter in Tallahassee FL where I was staying at the time. I filled out paper work with him knowing I would need a waiver for failing math classes because I never went, and dropping math classes in high school. I also knew I would need one for having surgery, and another for smoking pot a handful of times. Other then that, no problems at all.
Well when the marijuana issue came about, the recruiter told me not to mention it. This didn't sit well with me. I recieved some advice from people on this board, but in the end, pushed the idea aside as I was not comfortable with the whole situation.
Fast forward to Today:
I began talking with another recruiter in my home town about the Nuke program. More or less, I wasn't taken seriously due to needing my waivers and what not, and all I heard was "when can we send you up to MEPS". Well today I take the ASVAB for the first time, and low and behold, a 98%. Now the recruiter can't get me back to the office to fill out paper work fast enough. Then we run into the issue again of me smoking pot. He tells me that it is no longer waiverable for the Nuke program and if I want in, I can't put it down. He went as far as his commanding officer took me into another room, shut the door and told me this, told me to walk out the front door, count to 15, and come back in. When I came back in, there was a new form for me to fill out, and I was told that the only thing they're going to know is what I tell them.
I'm tired of this running around with them. I'm not going to lie about this stuff and have it come back up later on. If someone on here is a recruiter who is willing to work with me, I will drive/fly to you location to do this the right way, or if anyone has some other constructive advice, I would appreciate it.
