[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 722667, member: 1963"] I don't know about the discharge in this case. I know with not being able to handle Boot physically or mentally (the latter called 'failure to adapt'), they discharge you and it's as if the enlistment never happened. However lying to a recruiter about drug use under your daughter's circumstances? I don't know if it'd be handled as above, or if it would be a perjorative discharge. husband went in before the Army was routinely drug testing. He did have to sign an agreement stating that he would not use illegal substances during his delayed enlistment period, which he adhered to. My concern is whether or not her lying could be considered lying under oath, which is a felony, and could lead to a dishonorable discharge. I think your best bet is to visit some of the military boards and ask around. Visiting the actual *.gov sites pertaining to the military may provide answers as well. Hopefully, if she is discharged, it will be a "as if it never happened" seperation, and she won't have to face criminal charges. Hang it there and keep us posted, KLM. I know this is nervewracking.
