it is difficult to say whether or not this charge could be negotiated downward without knowing additional facts. And this is not the form to discuss case specific facts. You need to visit with an area attorney who specializes in DUI law. You are probably eligible for a deferred judgment if you pleaded guilty, but this will not help your impending military service because you woukd be placed on probation making you ineligible for boot camp for the time being. Seek private consult.
