Almost seven years ago, I was arrested in college for disturbing the peace. The incident was related to mushroom use. Back then, I smoked quite a bit of marijuana as well. More than six years have passed. I haven't touched an illicit drug and I have a great resume for the coast guard. Needless to say, my life changed dramatically since I got in trouble. Getting in trouble was actually a good thing for direction in my life.

As of recent, I have been granted an expungement on the above arrest record. Basically, on the Homeland Security backround check form, I can legally say I have never been arrested. However, there is a question that asks if I have ever used drugs in the last seven years. It hasn't been quite seven years since I last smoked marijuana; it has been more like 6.

I am applying for officers candidate school in a few months. What would you suggest I say? Be honest? If I am, have you ever heard of officers in the Coast Guard or Navy admiting to usage and being accepted? Thanks so much.
