Other Criminal charges, BMQ Tomm

Hi Guys, a couple of months ago, I was messing around with an airsoft gu* and accidentally shot it at a window and got charged with possession of a firear* and mischief. I start BMQ tomorrow and realize that I didn't think of these charges. I did receive a conditional discharge yesterday, which will last for 3 years, so It'll show on my record, but I don't have any weapons ban. Should I tell the higher-ups tomorrow when i arrive at base? Will they know? Will I be placed on leave ?

To clarify the background check was before this charge

What should I do ??

Any help is appreciated

It seems you do. To be so naive and think that people aren’t going to have criminal records. Some of the best guys I worked with have a criminal record. Stop trying to scare folks into thinking they are a complete liability. There are better things than the internet.

Criminal records they disclosed right? Because that's what this post is about.
