SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title; Associated Form; and OMB
Number: Police Records Check; DD
Form 369; OMB Control Number 0704–
0007.
Needs and Uses: Title 10, United
States Code, Sections 504, 505, and
12102 establish minimal standards for
enlistment into the Armed Forces.
Among other items, these sections
specifically prohibit the enlistment of
those convicted of a felony. The
Services have therefore developed
standards which address the
acceptability for Service persons with
police records, adverse juvenile
adjudications, or court convictions. The
standards are designed to screen out
categories of persons who have
probability of either having serious
disciplinary problems or may not be
able to adjust to the disciplinary
demands of the Armed Forces. This
information collection is needed to
identify persons who may be
undesirable for military service. The
existence of a police record is one of the
factors considered in establishing
eligibility for enlistment or entry into
highly sensitive career fields. Therefore,
verification data from the individual
and law enforcement agencies must be
obtained before enlistment can occur.
The form associated with this
information collection is DD Form 369,
‘‘Police Record Check.’’ It is used by
recruiters to inquire on applicants’
