Post; Waiver


Hi my name is Richard Elizee i am new here. I tried to join the army in Aug.07 . I got DQ'ed @ JAXMEPS due to scoliosis. I was never aware of the condition, and never experienced back pain. At the time my thorasic scoliosis was at 45 degrees and lumbar at 30. The limit for thorasic is 30% and the limit for lumbar is 20%. Now I have come across someone that was able to enter the Army with a 40 degree scoliosis in the thorasic section (of course with a waiver). My back has now improved. My thorasic is down to 40 degrees and lumbar around 35. Do you guys think I shall put in a request for another waiver at the end of my school year? My intended MOS is 11B Infantryman.


Thanks
Richard Elizee
HOOAH
