Richard

At the time, the prevalant thought in our town was that we were going to change the country of our advisary into a parking lot. In retrospect, it was very naive and arrogant thinking. I was rejected from service due to missing cartilage in my knee. It was a great disappointment.

Thanx Saltydad ,
That's some really good news to hear! Think I've been hearing too much from the Media & not enough from the Vets. I'll be old enough to join someday (hopefully AF, Luv aviation) and would Luv to here more responses from other Vets on the Treatment issue.

I am sorry to hear that a physical problem kept you out of the service Richard, and that you wanted to serve.
My Father had applied, tested & was accepted into West Point, pending his physical. He didn't know, but he had Juvenile Asthma...he was denied entry also.

I fought to get in, I went to the Attorney General of tha AF, they said I had an unbelievable Scolitic curve in my back...the technician who took the X-ray at MEPS forgot to tell me to take my shoes off, I was wearing heels .
I got an independant X-ray & made application for a review & they accepted it! The rest is History!

Just a reflection... ~Cheryl
