I have heard rumors for years that if you refuse the oath that you take on your last visit to MEPs prior to shipping out that you are out. Not sure if it is true. While going though boot camp in '97 we had several people "leave" for various reasons ranging from drugs to not being able to handle the vigors of waking up early.
Being in the Navy is probably the best thing that I ever chose to do. Thats after 10 years of being on sea duty overseas (I am transfering back to the states on Wednesday). It is a pretty good job with all chances for advancement (promotion) that you want. Your "I will" goes a lot further than you IQ.....especially at the more junior ranks.
Not sure what advice to give you except what has already been said....if your heart is not in it you probably are not going to be successful and are going to spend most of your time counting down the minutes until you get out.
