Expert: Rod Powers - 11/2/2009
Question
In 2004 I was separated from the Air Force with an entry level separation, RE 2c code. It was a JDA separation code (fruadulent enlistment), and I was wondering if I could get into the Coast Guard with this re code? I know the Army will take me as I have talked to a recruiter there, but I would prefer the Coast Guard. Is there any hope if I have written statements and a waiver to get in?
Answer
Hi Eric,
The Air Force is the only branch that almost never waivers an RE-2 code.
All of the other services (including the Coast Guard), will consider waivers for RE-2 Codes, depending on their current recruiting needs.

Hope this helps!
