Re: Waiver Regulations

For medical issues, the primary regulation is AR 40-501 Standards of Medical Fitness. There are some waiver requirements within, but it mostly states the requirements of medical fitness for various jobs and schools within the Army.

Re: Sprained wrist and sinus problem

In your own words, you just hit several reasons why you need to see a physician and not just seek some advice. Everyone on the this board who is qualified to conduct medicine would want to do a complete exam of the wrist and your sinuses before making any kind of recommendations. The simple fact tha...

Get an option 4 (Airborne Contract) and still get to the Regiment with no problems. With an airborne contract, you can either submit application at AIT or you can vol...

Re: 68w option 40
