that depend on the felony...because you will have to have a waiver done..and it can take some time to get approved. call a recruiter.

It depends on what your felony is. Before I say anything else, if your felonies involve drug trafficking or domestic abuse that fell under the Launtenburg Amendment then you are permanently disqualified. There is a list of charges that disqualify you from service but there are a lot that can get waived. The best thing you can do is call a recruiter and tell him what your charges are. More than likely you will need a waiver but because of the economy it will be harder. When you talk to him disclose ALL charges, not just the ones that you think count. A single charge by itself might not DQ you but a combination of different charges could. Also, if you are considering joining you should hurry up because you cannot join after your 42nd birthday.

http://www.army.com/enlist/guard-faq.html And specific enlistment requirements... http://www.army.com/enlist/guard-requirements.html Says if you have a criminal record you have to bring it to the recruiter and he'll tell you if you're disqualified. I bet a felony will mean no, but you never know until you ask. Better get on it, 40 is the age cut off.
