Couldn't respond to old thread...was called last minute at work
>be me at 7th grade >friends make who is toughest contest >i win by cutting myself
Yes that did happen, and I am very mad at myself for doing so. I have always wanted to join the military growing up but I have done research showing that my scars means I cannot join. Is there any way around it that I am not seeing? Also I have no history of psychiatric treatment and am perfectly sane. I did a full 360 starting high school and worked out+got good grades.
Zachary Hughes
Great job there retard, how did you even think to cut yourself
Jackson Lee
Kys ..sage and take to bant
Benjamin Young
>better ask Sup Forums
from what i remember of selection people got away with everything
Sebastian Lee
I ship to Navy basic training in exactly one week. Just tell them down at MEPS that you have always had it, don't remember how you got it, etc. Just be vague. Or shit, say it was a scooter accident or something. Doesn't matter really as long as it doesn't reveal psychological fuckedness or a problem with your health.
Andrew Sullivan
>If it's a bunch of cut marks A friend of mine took sandpaper to them so it just looked like one big skid mark scar.
They passed him into the navy.
Wyatt Butler
who knows
Julian Butler
but if they look like obvious self-harm marks would they label it as such?
Brandon Turner
Get a tattoo over it to match your skin pigmentation. Then lie and say you fell, or got cut doing construction
Adrian Mitchell
How many? where are they? how big? When you go to MEPS, you fill something out detailing every scar and tattoo on your body, and it is checked. You even list size, shape, how you got it. Just think of something that makes sense and isn't fucked and go with that.
Lincoln Ross
Yes, but make something convincing up and seem stable, they will probably believe you. People get past MEPS who arguably shouldn't all the time.
Tyler Ortiz
In that case I am fucked. I have quite a few...
Thomas Powell
One way to find out.
Cameron Lopez
Hopefully...if i told them that story of what actually happened would they automatically kick me out?
Colton Cox
How many are there and how large are they? Could you for instance get away with saying you ran into a barbed wire fence or are they obviously cutting scars
James Flores
They are pretty obvious, and in total about 6
Cooper Robinson
scars shouldn't keep you from joining. you might be barred from getting into the highest echelon of covert operations due to identifying marks, but that's about it.
Anthony Cook
Show us
Justin Flores
Yes, you'd be fucked.
Angel Miller
On your arm? All next to each other? In that case it'll be harder to explain
Chase Cook
Tell them you got into a knife fight with Satan and how he controlled your other hand.
Jaxon Lee
yeah honestly, show us but don't identify yourself. I'll be better able to help
Jackson Howard
Yeah they are relatively close to each other
Justin Jackson
this Oh darn. those are deeper than I thought. I'd say just apply and try to pass them off as accidents or such. Talk to a recruiter about it and see what he says
John Hughes
Yeah...really fucking pissed at myself. I will talk to the recruiter and see what they say.
Evan Hughes
best of luck to ya, m8
Camden Stewart
Yeah, those are pretty obvious, you're fucked.
Robert Thompson
should have just hung yourself to prove you're strong faggot
