My son just graduated from the AFA and has been assigned to Columbus Air Base for UPT. A couple of days ago, he took a fall hiking and broke his tibia just above the ankle. Surgery is required, which will be done 12 June. I think he is due to report to Columbus late July or early August. According to the doctor, he will be non weight-bearing for 8 weeks after surgery and then able to resume normal activity in approximately 12 weeks. Will his physical limitations from this injury early on in UPT negatively affect his status in the program?
