Hello question about Scoliosis. My daughter was just diagnosed with a mild case. Never came up in any sports physicals over the years and she is a competitive cross country competitor. However she just applied to PJ school via Civil Air Patrol. It is a very rigorous week long school this summer. So CAP gave us a checklist to take to the doctor and it appeared to be a more intensive physical basically. The checklist asked for a x ray and to make a long story short she does have some curvature in her spine. All else checked out well. Her squadron commander seems concerned that they may not let her in the school. So is a mild case of scoliosis disqualifying for the USAFA?
