So, I guess my question would be is even if you have the proper documents to back you up why would what shows up on the background check be the deciding factor. I've done a tour in Iraq, I've never had one negative counseling statement, and I've been awarded multiple awards including an ARCOM w/ V device.
Sorry to hear that.

At the same time, our actions have consequences.

Best of luck.
