Title: Hey George
Post by: mgoblue1086 on Mar 18, 2005, 02:44 AM
Hey George, I just recently enlisted in the Army with a 96B mos.  MY question is, with the DoDPI test, or the TES test, will any questions be asked about drug use or does it strictly deal with matters of espionage?  When I was in high school I smoked weed less than 3 times and I'm hoping that wont get in the way of the job I chose.  I will be trying to obtain just a regular security clearance.

The "Test for Espionage and Sabotage" (http://antipolygraph.org/articles/article-002.shtml) is a counterintelligence-scope polygraph examination. It does not include questions about drug use. In any event your minor marijuana use while in highschool will not preclude you from holding even a top secret security clearance with access to sensitive compartmented information (TS/SCI).
