Dear Service Academy forums,
I get just offered a 3 year Army ROTC (National Guard scholarship) which will be activated this september. I just keep thinking of anything that could DQ me. I currently have tinnitus (ringing in the ear). I only had it for 2 years and it's getting better. My uncle who was a United States Special Forces Operator and never had a problem through medical exams. I went to private doctor last summer for a hearing test and i had a cold which makes tinnitus 20x worse. I couldn't hear crap. I told my doctor i can hear very low noises so he brought in this special machine the test the Decibel reading of the ear. He printed out the results and it showed i had prefect hearing. I am in army ROTC and i am an enrolled cadet and when i am in security i can hear my Team leaders and cadres either talking or them saying the OPORD. I am extremely nervous about it. Is there a way that this document which prints out the Decibel reading be legal for the DODMERB. I never had a problem hearing people. Some cadets have worse hearing that i would expect. If someone could tell me what to do, to prepare myself for the DODMERB it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
Sincerely,
ArmyBulldog42
