Question about joining

[MrDemyan]

Hey Marines , When i was around 14 years old i got my ears peirced and i am 17 now and i know that was probably the most stupid thing i could ever do, but i was dumb back then , but anyways right now i still have like marks there still that look like holes but they are healed and there is really no holes but it just looks like it . So would that affect my dream of becoming a Marine?

Your recruiter would look at them to make sure they are in fact closed. MEPS will do the same but if it is as you say. You should be fine.

[MrDemyan]

ok , Thank you Marine

I agree with NCOPOWER. usually there won't be a problem with those who wore earrings in the past. i know when i was stationed at the Island i saw recruits who still had holes in the ears but they weren't the big loops, just small dots!

[MrDemyan]

yeah, because i just dont want my dream to be ruined of becoming a Marine just because of a stupid thing i did in the past.

[NCOPOWER]

You should be fine just talk to your recruiter.

When I first went to MEPS my hole wasn't completely closed, but once I went back again to ship off to boot camp they made sure it was closed. As long as the holes are closed and there's no signs of re-piercing you'll be fine.

When I enlisted I went to the recruiter...signed papers and left in a week...times changed.....


Went to take the physical at the federal building and swear in.....the sawbones poked and prodded in all my holes that weren't closed and signed the papers and I was good to go....

If your holes close up....worry....

Your posts are written in the same style.

17 year old pierced ear kids don't hang out with 14 yo's.

Now don't try to explain away your **** on PM's.

[MrDemyan]

Sir i have friends that i hang out in my neighbor hood that go to my high school and i hang out with them at home. I am done talking about this beleive what you want to beleive its your opinion.

[MrDemyan]

To tell you all i am 14 and my friend who attends my high school lives next to me and wishes to become a Marine to and asked me to post this up here to see if he could still be one. Sorry for the misscommunication Marines.
