Greetings,
I joined the Army in 1996 and found out it was not what I wanted to do. I was inexperienced and wanted a taste of life. I did everything to get out, including skipping PT, fighting and getting arrested, insubordination...etc Well, I finally got what I wanted and was discharged in 1998 for misconduct with a RE code of 3. I am now 32, I finished college graduating with a 3.8, and am currently a teacher. I also regret some of the decisions that I have made including acting like an ass to get out of the army. The point is now I want to be an officer. I was told by my recruiter that I could possibly get a wavier. But I would need three letters of recommendation, which is not a problem. My principal and assistant principal were glad to do it, however, I am still a little nervous. Has anyone experienced this or could offer some advice.
