What is the possibility of enlisting in the Marine Corps with an RE-Code 3? https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/what-is-the-possibility-of-enlisting-in-the-marine-corps-with-an-re-code-3 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Long story short, I didn’t finish Army BCT back in 2015. I recieved an Article 15, which led to a discharge. Since then I’ve decided that I want to join the Marine Corps (I was a poolee back in 2014, but my parents forced me to choose a different route since I was 17). I’ve talked to recruiters, but none of them wanted to do the paperwork, or so they say. Just wondering if it’s possible. TIA!

In their eyes, if you were unable to complete BTC in the Army, which is fairly easy to tell you the truth, why will you be able to finish now. Don&#39;t take it personal, it&#39;s just business. A recruiter&#39;s worst enemy is time, or the lack thereof, so they are not going to waste it on a prior service with no backbone. Good luck in your future endeavors.

If you go the reserve route and transfer to Active, you might have much better luck SFC Private RallyPoint Member Mon, 02 Jul 2018 10:34:27 -0400 2018-07-02T10:34:27-04:00 Response by SSG James James made Jul 2 at 2018 8:32 PM https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/what-is-the-possibility-of-enlisting-in-the-marine-corps-with-an-re-code-3?n=3762126&urlhash=3762126 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Turd SSG James James Mon, 02 Jul 2018 20:32:07 -0400 2018-07-02T20:32:07-04:00 Response by SGT Philip Klein made Jul 8 at 2018 5:38 PM https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/what-is-the-possibility-of-enlisting-in-the-marine-corps-with-an-re-code-3?n=3776833&urlhash=3776833 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Why would a recruiter waste his time doing paperwork?
