US Military Testing For Anabolic Steroids

[theepirate]

As many others have said, they don't normally test for AAS. The only reason they will test is if someone turns you in, or you attract attention to yourself.

For the Air Force side of things, you have a minimum and maximum weight that's scaled to your height for coming into the military. If you're within (I believe its) 5% of your weight range, they can waiver you coming in for being "overweight". If you're overweight because you work out a lot/take AAS, then they'd probably waiver it, just keep your mouth shut about it. At MEPS they'll fuck with you and try to get you to fess up about that one time you smoked pot or did anything illegal (In your case AAS) that you didn't tell your recruiter about.

Just keep your story straight, and even after you're in. Be very very careful who you tell. You'll probably be able to finish the cycle you're on now before you ship off to basic. Once you're in basic, you won't have the opportunity to do much, and while you're in tech school stay natural. Keep on going to the gym and stay away from the crowd that goes out drinking all weekend long.

Once you're at your first duty station, get a feel for how the dorms are for your squadron, my squadron was gay as fuck. We weren't even allowed to drink in the dorms because our CO at the time was a Mormon or something who pushed it on everyone, but my squadron was the only one on base like that. I've lived off base for awhile now, and I couldn't be happier.

IF youre overweight due to mass they usually tape you and go based off your BF% rather than you BMI.

Not to be a dick, but I cannot believe how ignorant you sound. Recruiters do not get paid per recruit. They have a mission of getting (I think 3 recruits?) per month, if they do not meet that they go to corrective training after a few times.

They get paid their pay and thats it, no bonuses for enlisting anyone.

There is a program that Docupak has started (teaming up with the National Guard) called GRAP. If I soldier refers you to a recruiter and you enlist and ship to basic, that soldier makes $2,000 - NOT THE RECRUITER.



Also - The reason they do not want you on medication they dont know about, especially AAS is because you have to be ready to deploy worldwide. What happens if youre in the middle of a combat zone and have no access to PCT, AAS, or needles? You are fucked and so are the people around you. The last thing they need is some troop losing his mind because he is on a hormonal rollercoaster due to AAS. This puts yourself and others around you in harm's way. Every soldier is expected to be combat-worthy, regardless of job or "MOS".

I support AAS use and the military (I am prior service Army), but you have to look at it from a logical perspective.

lol..my own staff sargent/recruiter told me he was making money off of me enlisting. He also said "once your enlisted, if you recruit anyone yourself you get paid too" and this was for the marines not national gaurd...Soo that I know for a fact your wrong about, however I guess the second part sounded like it made sense.

my thoughts exactly man!!!! what they can take a bullet for your ass... but they cant enhance themselves a little?

We get to big to wear all the body armor. Custom fits cost more lol.

umm..are you speaking of me? First of all I never WANTED to enter the military, it was more of a pushed issue type or ordeal. second, by the way you are speaking you are in the military and I would be willing to bet I STILL know AS much as you about everyday life seeing how HALF the people I know family AND friends are/were in the military. THIRD, no, your right not everyones JOB is infantry like the possition I applied for was Tank and Assault Amphibious Vehicle and motor transport HOWEVER, EVERYONE is taught basic combat training!..EVERYONE! Electronics Maintenance, combat camera photographer are all jobs that dont require fighting skills but are taught them ANYWAY!

Meh it doesn't matter what your job is per say. Ive seen people pulled from one mos to do a completely different job. Myself included. Once you get in your unit, if you cant cope or you do a really good job, higher up can pull your ass to kick in doors or some other high speed job. If your a shit head then they will make you do scrubwork.. it all depends. So ya basic skills are taught to everyone, The mos system just makes you feel like you have more of a position.

As far as taking juice before deployment. I did it! with no pct the entire year. lol it was pure hell, but I managed to perservere and bring my test up naturally. It literally took an ENTIRE year. Thank God I know now what I didnt know then. I believe a weaker man would have went crazy..Thank God for Ology lol.

You're still full of shit and so was he. No military regulation allows recruiters to grt paid an incentive per recruit. I was pointing out that the only branch that has anything close to that would be the Guard, and eventhn the recruiters cant get paid its the soldier that referred you.

Half of you are talking out of your asses about something you know nothing about. I can even spot a few fakes in here based on the MOS they claim (which aren't even correct, theyare place holders until you get assigned needs of the army in OSUT - I wont point those people out).

Seems like the only ones that dont seen lost or Misinformed in this thread are the real vets. I don't hold it against you people though - you are naive and will believe something just because your recruiter, friend, cousin or cousins cousin said so.

It's all good, but usually when people tell me stuff I tend to give them the benefit of the doubt. Especially when its something like that.

I understand. Like I said. I wasn't tying to call you out or nothin.

When it comes to people and the military I would take a lot of it with a grain of salt. Everyone has a story they like to tell people when they know the person doesn't know better.

You know, it's may sound funny, but I grew up with the military.

Both grandfather served Infantry in WW2, both recieved purple hearts on D-Day, one went on the serve in Korea and Nam. My grandmother was my grandfathers nurse at the Army hospital where he was sent to recover from very serious war wounds.

My father is RET Army, was 75th INF (LRRP) in Nam, brother in Navy, one in Airforce, soon to be retiring, and one is retired 1stSGT with 2 tours in IRAQ, my sister was an MP.

Since all but one sibling was older then me, and seeing how I was born, and grew up on Army instalations, I really thought I knew everything about the Army.

Then I enlisted Lightfighter Infantry 11B, head shaved at Fort Benning on my 17th BD, and I quickly came to realize that I didn't know squat!

Now I'm a Veteran (CIB), served an enlistment, and I can honestly say that I really truely thought that I knew more about the damn Army before I went in, then I do even today.
