In trouble for being in dealers phone.

My husband is reenlisting for the army and as we've been waiting to get back in we have been weaning off of an H habit that started because of us not being happy since he got out.

Everything has been going better than we thought because he was really highspeed, has good contacts and friends, and is an E6 with an excellent record. So his recruiter has been getting him through all the paperwork and it looks like we should be back in within the next month or so, but he just got a call from his recruiter today about his phone number being in the phone of someone who just got arrested for possession (one of his dealers who just got arrested).
Of course he played it off as though he doesn't know anything about it, and I'm not sure of all the details as he just called me to let me know and that we need to get clean immediately. So I guess the recruiter needs to put him on hold until this business gets cleared up, so what are we looking at here? Is he fucked, will be not be able to reenlist? He did happen to know the guy from highschool, and obviously the guy has to have plenty of people in his contacts that aren't related to his dealing in any way.

I'm just super worried cause this is our way out, back to a good life in the army away from depression and drugs. Does anyone have any positive outlook on this or anything to keep me from worrying? Thank you so much for your time.

yea it posted

sorry but people probably don't know how to answer you question... I sure as hell don't. Only someone who has been in the military would be able to answer this, I know theres a few people on here with experience but idk just hope they see it i guess

good luck I hope everything works out Im sure everything will be fine

He is fine, I am sure of it.
How he even KNEW that the contact information was in there is too strange.
If it was an open case, it should not have any reason to even post pone the processes of getting back into the military.
Also - Your partner is not being expected of a crime thus there should be no cause to worry.

They would need to start an entire file against your partner then file a warrant to proceed with a criminal charge.
You have nothing to worry about - A number in a phone means NOTHING and should not hinder any sort of moving forward in getting back into the military.

Just get sober. It is the easiest way to fix this problem. Yeah I know it is easier said than done, but if you want something you gotta work for it. It is kinda like eating a twinky when you really wanted a homemade pie. The twinky is easy. You just buy it, cram it in your mouth and its over...the pie is hard...You make a crust, cut fruit, bake it, wait for it to cool...then you enjoy it. Things that are hard often are way more rewarding.

But back on topic. Getting sober is easy. It is as simple as not using. Staying sober is hard. I would highly suggest getting some kinda support network going.

I think your husband is bullshitting you. How in the world would a military recruiter know the details of a police investigation?

But getting off dope is a good idea. The military takes a hard line on drug use.


That said I am going to close this as it is not really suited to sober living. If you want to post a thread to talk about the mechanics of how you are going to get clean feel free to do that.
