Hello All,
I am a former US ARMY reservist who received an other than honorable discharge 3 years ago. I had NO misconduct or drug charges. I was unable to attend drills due to financial reasons and requested a transfer to a unit closer to my home. Basically the CO led me to believe the paperwork was being done and than booted me for non attendance. I have been trying to re enlist ever since but in usual ARMY fashion ALL my records are lost. Not even a congressional request from my congressman has been able to turn them up.
I have shifted my hopes to the Legion for soldiering again as after 3 years of trying to rectify the situation nothing has happened. I loved being a soldier and its the ONLY thing I see myself doing. My question is am I still eligible? Would they even ask? I dont have any records to give as stated above so what could I do about that, what would be the proccess? I am in great shape, have completed 2 degrees and have NO criminal history, I do wear glasses.
Thanks to all who have and will serve and to those who have taken the time to read and respond to this post.
