I like your name.

Now read the stickies and introduce yourself in the proper place.

You are going to have to soldier hard for a couple of years and then apply for SFAS. Make sure that you are prepared when you go.

I would also recommend that you leave alcohol out of your life for a while.

The history that you have will never be wiped clean as far as the Army is concerned. It will come up at SFAS and again during your security clearance process. Do not lie about it, and do not repeat/compound your mistake.

Good luck.
