So I have security clearance issues, I live in a small town and had a couple incidences that look 100 times worse on paper. I am joining the army for two reasons. The challenge and the educational benefits, I have already learned that my recruiters are feeding me what ever kind of lies and manipulation to get me in and that the 100 percent tuition assitance has a cap of about 23% of what I would need to attend the school I want to attend. But Money is not the issue for me I want to become a Ranger I know I have what it takes and for me its the only way I would join the military. So I was wondering if there was someone I could talk to on this forum about my situation so I can find out the bottom line truth and stop wasting my recruiters/ my time if Im following a carrot on a stick with this.
Also my recruiter said that he could get airborne on my contract not matter what, so if that is the case and I cant get opt 40, do I have a chance at volunteering for RIP out of airborne school despite my security clearance issues? Thank you for your time -Austen
Getting opt 40 or airborne school on contract

Rangers, I have the same issue as this guy. I don't know if I'll be able to get the secret security clearance so I was considering just going option 4 airborne and hope to get the chance to volunteer for RIP at jump school. That way I figure hopefully I'll get the shot at RIP before they have a chance to process my clearance. Otherwise I have to ask for an option 40 and hope I pass the clearance but if I don't, I'm dead in the water with no chance at rip.
I will do whatever it takes to complete the mission.
