Question
Was wondering if i can join the Army or Marines with Re-entry code of 2B JJE?
Thank you for your time.
With JJE being court martial (Drug abuse), you would only be eligible to join if you completed a drug rehab program (outpatient is fine) and then made it thru a MEPs physical. You would have to wait at least one year since your discharge.
Even then, you still need a waiver, and it all depends on the needs of recruiting if you would get the waiver.
You would be considered a big risk to rejoin and he odds are against you.

Expertise
I am a National Guard recruiter , been doing it for seven years and am a subject matter expert on qualifications for National Guard and I keep up to date on Regular Army regs and programs. I was in the Navy for 4 years and have 13 years in the Guard. I will not sugar coat my answers to you. They are usually short and to the point. If you need more in depth, ask me. Because each situation is different, alot of times you need to actually talk to a recruiter and let them evaluate your situation in person, by looking at your documents, issues etc. If I suggest this, it would be in your best interest to do so. Finally...thank you for your interest in serving this great nation of ours. Very few people can actually make the cut to serve let alone choose to do so. So thank you for wanting to and hopefully you will get a chance. Whatever branch you choose, thank you and good luck.
