I know that for the airforce if you have bad credit or bankruptcy you are not able to get into it. This is why I have to look at the army or the navy. What sort of things from your past can keep you from getting in?

i am currently Bullshitting with the Army for my 3rd time trying to get processed, but 1.failing the asvab 2.being overweight. 3. back problems. 4. the dont ask, dont tell policy, works both ways.
 
That pretty much applies to all branches none of them want people who are going to be a liability.
They are not a welfare agency as. If a person has kid(s) it is hard to get in hard enough with out them. But harder when you have them. Once in and settled down in most cases is another story in it's own right. Not saying a person would be able to get in. They have to give up the child by means of adoption. Now later get the child back after the schools are completed and the person has a duty station. Show a good stable life style. One would have a hard road to travel in order to get house on base much faster and costly off base but it can be done.
 
DEATH. Don't join the army or navy do you want to have to kill innocent children just because we want you too. Think about all the people you will have to murder if you go into the army.
 
Because so many people are applying to the army, they have changed the requirements, if you have a GED they will not accept you unless you have taken at least 12 college credits, and pass the asvab, they do not accept any kind of criminal background, and you either have to be a citizen or a permanent resident with a certain type of green card (can't remember which kind of residency needed) , I'm not sure of the requirements for the navy, but I'm sure they are similar, and may even involve checking your credit scores.
