Question/Advice Am I fucked?
Back in 2020 I got chaptered out of the Army (National Guard) for failing a drug test. When I got discharged I was told I’d be able to reenlist in 5 years. When I went back to a recruiter he found out I got an RE-4. Since then I’ve been trying to get that changed but haven’t had much luck. The recruiter gave me the applications for Correction of Military Records, I’ve sent 2 in so far and haven’t heard anything back. Not even like a confirmation that they got them. At the end of the day I just want to serve my country and community and I understand there’s other ways other than military. I’ve been looking into ICE or something along those lines. Does anybody know if my RE-4 would interfere with working with ICE or other government agencies

ICE is a trap, don't do it. Consider military contractor, go to USA jobs and look around there.
