Question
Would having a misdemeanor larceny charge affect my enlistment or limit me in the future regarding ranks and pay?

Answer
Hello Samantha,
Ok a few questions I have are, how long ago did this happen? How old were you when this happened and which branch are you trying to join? Next question I have is how much was the items worth and where did it happen at? If you could give me some more information on that it will help me out tremendously. Also I apologize for not getting back to you sooner as well. It's been a bit of a hectic week.
Thank You,
Eric
