A few good men

And 350 felons to pad the numbers. That is one of the means used to achieve recruiting numbers by the Marines in 2007. The Army needed 511.
the Pentagon statistics showed the Army allowed 106 convicted burglars to enlist in 2007, up from 36 the year before. It also granted waivers to 43 recruits convicted of aggravated assault that year, up from 33 a year before; and to 130 people convicted of possession of drugs other than marijuana, a rise from 71 in 2006.

It also allowed two people convicted of making terrorist or bomb threats to enlist in 2007, up from one the year before.
Just so long as the last two don't get explosives training.
