How far would you go for a CC?

I'm not eligible for NFCU, but I really want to get in with them. Should I enlist, then get a dishonorable discharge? Smiley Frustrated

If only registering for the Selective Service counted as service for NFCU. That would be great!

I don't think it's a good idea to get a DD. It'll be hard for you to get a job among other things.

Re: How far would you go for a CC?

Id go as far as waiting 3 months and trying again Smiley Tongue  If I cant get it now, I probably cant within the next year.

 

You can join military, fail the physical tests while in basic and get an uncharacterized discharge which turns into an honorable discharge months later.

(I knew a few guys tho did this, failed the run every time so they would get booted out honorably)

 

That happen to me but it was not on purpose but its how I found out.  8 or so guys including me had it happen to them. (103+ fever, non stop coughing and throwing up for WEEKS)  Turns out of they infect you with some crappy disease youre not immune to, they dont try to fix it just leave you in hospital until one day weeks later in hospital they have you sign some papers and inform you, you are out.  Pick up your final check, turn in your stuff and get on the bus to leave.  (and youre still sick, thanks army!)

 

No need to get dishonorable Smiley Tongue
