How bad will my past MJ use hurt my chances of getting into OCS?

I've used marijuana approx. ten times in my life, primarily in late high school/early college in 2003-2006. I know a lot of people would simply omit this kind of thing on their OCS application but I am hoping for a career in law enforcement after (if I can get accepted) 4 years in the Air Force/Navy/Army, and obviously it would not look good if I say I hadn't used/used less times on my app for OCS than I will have to put down on my police application which I'd be polygraphed on. The air force recruiter I had talked to said it wouldn't be that big of a deal as long as it was under 15 times and the Navy recruiter kind of hinted that I might want to leave it out. How badly will this hurt my chances of getting into OCS?

Like bubba said, it won't help you. but it won't kill you either. I think 10 times can be reasonably explained as "experimental," vice a dude waking and baking every morning. Good on you for being honest.
