Good morning!
I'm sure it wasn't the OPs intention but it seems like this thread may have ruffled a few feathers.
To answer Scupra question, yes roommates can sponsor other potential members .

Dead.
A member's roommate can join, just be ready for account freeze and a grilling from the security department to verify addresses. A member's immediate family can also join including grandparents/grandchildren and step siblings.
Roommates = household members
Just be prepared for a much more intense investigation if past experiences are any indication.
The guy who visited the Navy recruiting office then joined up with NFCU may have stated he was in the DEP program. People go into the Delayed Entry Program if there are no slots open for a particular MOS (job) . I was in the USMC DEP for almost a year before going to boot camp. But being in DEP only requires signing a letter of intent to join the service, not signing an actual legally binding contract for the service. IOW, you're not in the military when you're in DEP (and as such, don't go to pound-me-in-the-ass brig for breaking the agreement).
[Edit: after researching some more, the government can take action against someone for changing their mind in DEP, but in reality this never happens. The US is no longer in the business of conscripting people involuntarily.]
However, for those of you stroking your chins right now, be prepared for the recruiter to make you feel like the scum of the earth if you change your mind in DEP. You do not want to mess around with a recruiter's feelings; they'll turn on you like betrayed ex-girlfriends. You will have men in uniforms looking for you--they'll come to your work, school, home, talk to your friends, coworkers, family until everybody in your life knows you lied to the US Government. There may be some crazy talk about "permanent records" and "dishonorable discharge." And it'll only end when you finally meet the recruiter face to face and admit that you lied, your word is dirt, and that you really are the scum of the earth. Oh, and they're also going to want all of that in writing. But hey, maybe that's worth it for some people to get a shiny new credit card. To each their own.
