    Acne treatment boundaries

    In the eyes of DoD I'm medically qualified to be a AROTC cadet this coming fall; I want to keep it that way. However, I have mild/moderate acne that seems to be escalating with time, so I've decided to go for treatment. Before I go under any type of care I'd like to clear up some points: 1...

    AROTC offer deadline

    I recently received a scholarship offer from AROTC at my first-choice college. :P ... BUT I was given a deadline (late Feb) that conflicts with my chances for AFROTC, as I will not know if I have been awarded an AF scholarship until after that deadline. And I really want to keep my options...

    Orthodontics

    I just went to see an orthodontist, who recommended that I consider traditional/Invisalign braces to fix a bite and crowding problem. How does DoDMERB feel about ROTC (hopefully next fall) and braces? And what about Invisalign? Should I even be thinking about orthodontics right now? Thanks.

    DoDMERB and heart defect...??

    I was recently (a month) diagnosed with a "borderline heart defect"- right bundle branch block to be exact. And now I'm absolutely mortified that I will be completely denied a medical waiver. I've never had any symptoms, and I've been very active my entire life. Unfortunately, the only reason...

    DoDMERB and knee brace?

    I recently had my ACL reconstructed-- right around the same time I received my DoDMERB scheduling notice for ROTC. Surgery went perfectly, and I'm ahead of schedule in recovery with my physical therapist. However, I do have to wear a custom knee brace until next spring. I will have it off...
