Abstract: 10 USC 504, 505, 508, and 12102 established minimum standards for entry into the Armed Forces. This information collection is necessary to gather data on applicants for military enlistment. The DD Form 369, Police Record Check, is used to screen and identify applicants who may have a discreditable involvement with the police or other law enforcement agencies. It is used to identify those applicants who may be undesirable for military service or required a waiver to enlist. It is initiated whenever an applicant indicates any type of criminal involvement or arrest record other than a minor traffic violation.
