To reenlist as prior service, do I have to disclose an article 15 that I was given if my DD214 says I have no bars to reenlisting?

I received a FG article 15 while on active duty. I was able to finish my contract and got out with an Honorable discharge and an RE code of 1. My question is, do I have to disclose the article 15 given that my DD214 says I've got no bars from re enlisting?

All that matters is the Honorable Discharge and RE-1 stated on your 214. If you wanna tell the recruiter, that's your call.

Thank you SFC that's what I thought. Back in 2017 I tried to re enlist and was honest with the recruiter. I got 3 character reference letters from officers stating I was squared away and the day before going to meps he told me meps was requesting a copy of it. I spoke to everyone, HRC, Division. ARBA...no one has a copy of it. I don't want to run into that again. I just want back in.

RE-1 eligible to re-enlist, no waiver required. You only have to mention it for your security clearance.

You don't with an RE-1. Having said that, you have now already disclosed it to anyone who might look hard enough.
