Sec. 96.4  Policy.

    Section 503 of title 10 U.S. Code requires the Secretaries of the 
Military Departments to conduct intensive recruiting campaigns to obtain 
enlistments. It is the policy of the Department of Defense that the 
Military Services review the background of applicants for enlistment and 
for participation in special programs to identify:
    (a) Those whose backgrounds pose serious questions as to fitness for 
service (10 U.S.C. 504 and 505) or suitability for participation in 
special programs (part 156 of this title).
    (b) Those who may not be enlisted in the Military Services unless a 
waiver is granted (section 504 of title 10, United States Code).
    (c) Those who may try to enlist fraudulently.
