[QUOTE="ksm, post: 720513, member: 12511"] I have researched it. Even if she makes it thru boot camp, she could be dismissed at any time for false info. If she ever needed security clearance for specific jobs in the military, it could be found out. Many job applications ask if you have been discharged from the military. Copied and pasted: [SIZE=4][B]Lying to Get Into the Military is a Felony[/B][/SIZE] Let's get straight to the point.
