I'm not currently in the military but am a trumpet player and starting to audition for the military bands, and you need to meet the general weight and measure requirements to get the job before going to basic. Or, they will nicely request that you "may" want to leave the audition. I haven't got my BF done in a while, but I know I am and endo-meso, can gain muscle and strength easily but have love-handle and chest fat. I would guess BF to be around the upper 20's. I know my I probably in 2 months cant get my bf down to the teens, however the closer I get the better my chances are of getting to the audition and if I win, i will have more time to shed more weight.
My diet that I am going for is, morning egg white carton goo stuff

with an apple. Then i have some sort of fruit snack or protein after a workout. Then 1 cup instant brown rice with chicken and some parmesan/feta cheese(pretty moderate amount). Then try for another snack, which most of the time may be nuts of some sort, and dinner again is rice and chicken/eggs sometimes with black beans. 1 Day a week I eat whatever I want (to maintain sanity), and some morning I will have oatmeal instead of eggs white stuff. I would like to eat both in the mornings but I am always forcing myself to eat breakfast and can't handle that much in the morning.
Where my diets fall is sweet cravings and carb dense food cravings (pamera bagels snack crackers ect.). I have been down to 190 and benching 300lbs but that was also after working the summer outdoors for 8-12 hours a day installing swimming pools. Now that im at school again sitting in a practice room for a couple of hours a day along with a couple hours of class, and a job that does not involve much physical activity it is much harder to get back into shape.
The last time i did one rep maxes here were my numbers...i dont know if this will help or not, maybe just to see where I am as far as training.
bench- 315
squat- 365
deadlift- 385
Also I have 2 herniated disks which has me stay very cautious when dealing with heavy lifts. (nobody in the military that i have talked to has said this impairment is 100% means to not be accepted)
