Can Sex offenders join the military?

[ashley g]

My brother got in trouble and was charged with a misdemeanor of indecent exposure. They made him register as a sex offender though. Can he still join the military?

[at3wells]

if it was a misdemeanor he may possibly be able to get in. Felony is 99.9% no, under any circumstances. The factors will be how long ago, behavior and job history since conviction and things of the sort. He MUST be honest and completely accurate if he speaks with a recruiter b/c i can promise you they will look at every document and grill him with the words looking for innacuracies and other character flaws. If he can find a recruiter to take his case (will be difficult) your bro must push him to do everything possible to gain acceptance. I can promise you the air force will never accept him, the navy and army will be marginal, and the corps may be his best shot.

Negative. If you are a registered sex offender then you are not eligible. If you become a sex offender while in the military you will be discharged.

With the "dont ask. Don't tell. policy. That's pretty hard to do.
You have to report, "everywhere you go." That is "telling."
In this day and age, you can run, but you cannot hide. <|:-})-{*

Not if they have been convicted.
