Going to Bootcamp with glass in my face
Forgive me if this is the wrong place for this discussion.
I was in a car accident a few years ago and got 3 pieces of auto glass permanently lodged under the skin on my jaw. I was told by multiple people already in the Marine Corps that it will hurt my chances if i disclose it, and since it doesn't hurt me and isn't visible, then they wont be able to find it anyway. I have been in the DEP for close to a year and 3 days before my ship day i learn that a dental x ray will be done at boot camp. With a dental x ray they will most certainly find the glass. I have chosen to come clean to my recruiter because i shouldn't have lied in the first place. is there a chance that i will be able to stay? or did i just ruin my life?
I know what i did was wrong, i just hope it isn't too late. Any info would be very appreciated.
