If I expunge my criminal history and pay off what I have in collections can I

Yes, it is very possible. Go talk to the recruiter again and ask what you need to do or if it is even possible. Don't take no for an answer but ask 'why no'. This way you will know what you need to do if indeed you can do anything.
 
no such thing as expunged to the Military. they must still be disclosed and they can and still will be held against you. Moral waivers are pretty much impossible to get right now.

the collections alone prevent your enlisting. get that taken care of and you MIGHT have a shot in October when the new Fiscal year starts. they may start granting Moral waivers at that time.
 
Moral Standards
The United States Military Services make every attempt to assess the moral quality of potential recruits, and several categories of moral offenses may preclude enlistment. This is primarily accomplished based on criminal record.
I should note here that there is no such thing as a "sealed record," or an "expunged record" as far as the military is concerned. The recruiting services have access to law enforcement and FBI investigative records, which -- quite often will list arrests in these categories.
With this in mind I would be willing to be that you have been barred from enlistment in to any branch of the military.
