I lied at meps . I was told I had heart murmur when I was 6 and was told that I would grow out of it little to say I didn’t they found it at meps . I have to go to a cardiologist 3 weeks from now to say if it’s a no go or not . The doctor who found it said it not a big deal and they will let me in . But I’m afraid that they will go back on my medical records and find out I lied . A bunch of others told me to just play dumb . What do you think will they look back on my medical records after finding a heart murmur ?

The people that say they don't lie are the biggest liers, and hypocrites. Read the article below. Is lying right? No. But when we don't admit it. We are in denial.

Liar, Liar: We All Lie, but Why?
Lying is in our nature, and it’s socially acceptable

If you honestly forgot about it because you lived a normal active life as a kid that's one thing. If you purposely left it out that's another thing. Lying by omission is just as bad as directly lying. This is a subject that could not only endanger you during training. But also hazard your brothers in time of war. Get it checked out and face the consequences of your actions with a straight face and your head eyes front. Either way you will learn to be a man.

This controversy sorta blows my fuses; in the 'sixties it seemed like everyone was lying at AFEES (only thing we had then) to get OUT of serving -- 'Nam, and all. Have things changed that much? I probably lied to the Army as much as anyone, but not to dodge the draft (as some rich politicians have!!!) since they consistantly lied to me. just sayin'... 76 year old Army vet

They take anyone these days, the current military is desperate and confused and isn't really a military or armed force anymore, just another scam opportunity, don't worry about it. Don't pay any attention to those trying to intimidate or scare you for posting this question, and avoid their kind when you start "serving". Good Luck and make the best of it or like everyone else get your and get some. And make sure you scam the VA on the way out as well, you can get paid.

This is falls under falsification that is in your entry records, also as the LTC stated this is a public site, and everything you write confirms false information, and fall the USMJ.

I served in the Army for 12 years with a heart murmur but that was such a long time ago and it didn't seem to matter then. Sometimes the doctors hear it and sometimes they do not. I was very young when I was diagnosed, as well.
