    Default Army & Drug Testing

    I'll warn you guys right off: I really know very little about this situation, but I'm worried.

    One of my friend's exes recently called her to say he had join the Army. According to what he told her, he should be in Texas now doing some sort of training. He called to say goodbye and all that.
    But, well, there is no way in hell he'd pass a drug test. He's a pretty good liar, but I seriously don't know why he would lie to her about this.

    They test recruits before training, right? I know he passed a physical of some sort...

    Yes. And even the best liars have trouble lying with urine.
    "He will come in one of the pre-chosen forms. During the rectification of the Vuldrini, the traveler came as a large and moving Torg! Then, during the third reconciliation of the last of the McKetrick supplicants, they chose a new form for him: that of a giant Slor! Many Shuvs and Zuuls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Slor that day, I can tell you!"

    You get tested at MEPS before you ship and, in the Marine Corps at least, you get tested one week into bootcamp.

    Cliff note version. Can't test for every drug. Certain drugs are tested for because they are most common. Sometimes the samples are not tested at all because it is very expensive, just puts the scare into the troops.

    Tested at MEPS.
    Tested randomly at Units , either 100% or a lottery based on the last number in your SSN.
