WHY, cant I, as a US Citizen, who is a Convicted Felon, and would like to change for the better, and do positive things for my community, life, and this country, WHY can I not be accepted to enlist into the US Army? The country should be allowing Citizens like me, to enlist into the military. What happen to freedom, and a country of hope, and change?? Why must a good person who made a mistake in life, have to suffer forever and have a 2nd chance for the right things in life??? please respond back to me ASAP. I am a United States Citizen, that wants to serve his country, and a 2nd chance at life to do the right thing, and prove to society, i am not a wrongful person. I would really like to see a change in some things this country has to offer, so why not start with the helping of US citizens that want to help change themselves as well as our country. Please allow convicted felons that are willing to join the military, be eligible for enlistment.
