Ok...I recentely got out of the Navy in 05 due to fact that I didn't like it. I went to a psychologist and basically lied my butt off to get out. I couldn't bare to stand those crummy watches in "a" school, and plus I ended up failing my school which probably meant I was going to be undesignated. That's not what I wanted. So after waiting months to class up I end up failing my school. Now I got out, and I want to get back in, because basically i'm not doing anything with my life. I have my records and everything, but will I a be accepted back in? Is there something that I should look for in my records that says I can't. Where can I find it? What are my chances of getting back in?

Why don't you ask the Royal Navy's 'Carrers Information Office'? They'd know best and you could ask them anonymously ;)

the one answer you had about the RE code is the right one, if you have an RE4 reenlist code you could appeal, but you shouldn't have lied to the shrink. If you think A school was tough wait until they put you on an aircraft carrier and you work 12 hours a day 7 days a week, then they wake you up in the middle of your sleep to go on a "crummy" flight deck watch for 4 hours, then give you a Genral Quarers Satation and wake you up in the middle of off your sleep time for that, from what I recall if you flunked out of A school they would change your rate to a boatswainmate and you'd end up mopping floors or working in the laundry, but then you would still have to stand "crummy watches". People think the NAVY is easier than the other branches of service, but there is a 84 hour work week onboard ship and every 3 days you have a watch of some type. My guess is unless you have a really good recruiter who is willing to fight to get you "waivers" I would say no. When I went into the service I was a child, I had ADHD, I had a temper, and I was dumber than a box of chocolates, but I was able to get thru. if you didn't like it the first time you won't like it the second time either, you can try, good luck

The Navy is hard to get back into. Do you have a reenlistment code on your DD-214? If its a 4, unless you appeal, you're not getting bac in. What makes you think that if you join again you're going to do better? You'll still have to stand crummy watches, and takes stupid tests and hurry up and wait for a lot of crap. People in the military have to deal with a lot of stuff they might not think is the most fun, if you couldn't handle it before, why try again?

Doubtful, Im not talking trash but everyone else stood those watches and did their job. Everyone has to deal with those same problems and most people do what they have to do. Then some peole take the same course of action that you took, and the Military in general won't look at you as trustworthy mostly because you lied to get out. It's possible that you could get back in but highly unlikely. I really wouldnt count on it though. I would explore any other options you might have and take the lesson you learned about not burning bridges and apply it to your life. Good Luck!

check your RE code. if it is a 4, the Navy will NOT take you back. in fact, I can almost guarantee they won't.. you lied, you purposely failed, they don't want to work with someone who doesn't honor their commitments. who is to say you won't pull the same stunt again, since Boot and A school are going to be just like they were back in '05.
You have probably burned your bridges.

Honor Courage Commitment!
You couldn't even tough it out long enough to get to real fleet and you lied and whatever else you did.....the answer is hell no.
The big RE-4 code on your DD214 tells you everything you need to know. That codes means never allowed to enter any military ever again. We didn't stutter when we sent you home.
