I want to join the marines but do not know if I am elgiible to do so. I was involved in a car accident while I was intoxicated. I was charged and convicted of 4th degree aggravated assault and a DWI. This was the first crime I committed, I served less then six months in a county jail. Its because of this that I'm unaware if I'm elgiible to join the U.S.M.Cs. If I'm not elgiible I am elgiible for the foreign legion. I've had a couple of friends (former marines) tell me that I should be accepted but, they are not 100% on that. I've also read from a couple places that I may still be elgiible because it was a DWI related incident. Anyone know for sure? I want to be a soldier in my country, but since we are so up tight these days and like to persecute people for things, I may fight under another flag if necessary.
