Line 4:
DEP members who change their mind and decide not to enter the military before they begin active duty will be separated with no adverse consequences. The Army DEP regulation, as an example, states that "under no circumstances will any member of [the recruiting force] threaten, coerce, manipulate, or intimidate FSs [future soldiers], nor may they obstruct separation requests" (USAREC Reg. 601-56, 3-1c).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.usarec.army.mil/im/formpub/REC_PUBS/R601_56.pdf|format=PDF|title=Waiver, Future Soldier Program Separation, and Void Enlistment Processing Procedures|publisher=United States Army Recruiting Command}}</ref> While the DEP enlistment agreement states that the military can technically order any DEP recruit to active duty in the event that they do not fulfill their commitment by reporting to training on their specified date, no recruit has been involuntarily ordered to active duty in decades.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://usmilitary.about.com/cs/joiningup/a/dep.htm|title=The Delayed Enlistment Program (DEP)|author=Powers, Rod|website=About.com}}</ref>
While [[United States Marine Corps|Marine Corps]], [[United States Navy|Navy]], [[United States Air Force|Air Force]], and [[United States Army|Army]] recruits are in the DEP, they will be encouraged to spend a significant amount of time at their local recruiting offices with their [[Military recruiter|recruiter]] who will begin to train them in military fundamentals such as [[drill and ceremony]], [[first aid]], [[chain of command]], and [[Military rank|rank structure]] prior to leaving for recruit training and active duty service.
