Kona is correct. If you got arrested reveal it. It will come back to get you during bootcamp. Im currently active duty in the MA rating. A kid got booted from my division for not disclosing information. If it can be tracked, inform them. If it cannot, as in anything not documented, you are fine. goodluck with your career and as far as the clearence dont cut any corners, you'll be stuck hanging off the side of the ship painting for 4 years.

BlackJherk,

  so you are telling us you use steroids?  and that you were a 120 lb weakling?  oooh you jocks are worth noting.   get a football scholarship, get sidelined by an injury and football life's over!  maybe stand next to a BudLight girl and get your picture taken.  WOW.

Look who took the time to reply back. Nice job, Canadian Loser. 

Hey BJ.

You took the time to register on this board just to post that?

I am sure there are a million other boards you could hack to get your jollies yet you pick this one and a thread over two months old?!

Good job and may you get a life!

LOL

It's always amazing how as people get older they tend to embellish the stories of when they were growing up. I think twoblock was sharing this story just to show what a "tough" guy he used to be. Grandpa, nobody is interested in listening to your lame stories about what a "bad-ass" you used to be. I notice that you make the point to mention that they were 5 football players. Well, let me fill you in on something. Back in the "olden days" football ball players were like a 120 pounds and weak. You were never exposed to the bone breaking blasts of a 280 pound running back that runs the 40 in 4.4 seconds. You wore leather helmets for christ's sake, and hardly any pads, and you still never got hurt to the extent that players do now and they have better equipment! So to take on 5 football players back in the 1950's (which I highly doubt you did anyways) is not a great feat.  I'm sure in your day you may have considered yourself "tough", but in this day and age, I guarantee you that you would get smashed. You weren't as stong as the kids these days. With all the steroids and the way people dedicate themselves to the gym there is no way you could ever compete by just using your "farm muscle". Please stop boring us with your silly fairy tales.

Kona is correct.

I was in the Navy and in 1950 I was transferred to a guided missle test center and my job required a high security clearance. I forgot to tell the investigator about an incident where, after a highschool football game, a car load of opposing players jumped my brother and me and the brawl began. The sheriff, my cousin, was called and by the time he arrived we had four out cold and my brother was working on the 5th. We were put in jail for the night and he took us home (about 10 miles out in the country) the next Sat. AM. The investigator showed me a detailed report of the incident but he was satisfied that I honestly had forgotten about it and I got my clearance. So, I would advise you to tell them because they will find out.

BTW, My dad razor strapped our backsides. Not because we were fighting but, because our hands was so busted up that we couldn't perform our farm duties for awhile. This was in the report also.

Hey Sailor,

My advise to you would be: don't even think about bullshiting a Defense Investigative Service agent about this event in your life.  The investigation for your TS clearance is very in depth, and I can guarantee you they will find out about this.  Just be honest, and explain the entire event to the investigator.   


Good luck.

I was arrested once in my life for something extremely stupid.  I was messing around on a computer at school and changed the desktop to the MSN logo and could not change it back because the school computers are so restrictive you cannot right click on the desktop.  Anyways a teacher who overreacted called the police and had me arrested for "tampering".  he completely lied to the school board making it sound like I had malicious intent in doing so.  I spent about 20 minutes locked up and then I went home.  I receieved no punishment from my school ironically and I was supposed to be on 4 months probabtion and perform community service.  I ended up not being bothered once by my PO and I didn't have to do the community service.  This happened in April 2003 when I was 17 and I joined the Navy in October 2003.    

I was completely terrified about this when I joined and even more when they didn't have my Journalism job available and offerered me my second choice which was Electronics Warfare/Cryptology which requires a Top Secret clearance I think.  The initial backround test at MEPS revealed nothing but am I safe?
