Admin sep from the marines for fraud enlistment. is it smart to put down he was a marine on a application?

Question

My brother is getting a administrative separation from the marine corps. He is told he will have a hard time getting a job. Would it be smart to put down on a resume or application that he was a marine or should he let the employer find out for themselves? He is applying for security jobs.

Answer 1

he will need to be up front.. but with an RE4..he will NOT be getting any security jobs.  and yes they DO require you to produce a DD-214.  they will find out anyway when they run his SS number

By omitting the information..he's committing Fraud.  AGAIN.

Answer 2

I wouldnt mention it. If they ask to see his discharge it will come back to haunt him. His DD 214 narrative reasoning will state "Fraudulent Enlistment" Thats a red flag for anyone.
