      3. Any acceptance of employment will be predicated in part upon the truthfulness of the written and verbal statements contained within this Application and pre-employment process.

I authorize the lawful custodian(s) of my military records to release to Golden Empire Transit District and/or its lawful third-party agent information or photocopies of my military personnel and related medical records, or only the following information/records.
