Hey I have a question about the DoDMERB process and I have looked everywhere for an answer to this.
Is there a minimum weight requirement and how easy is it to obtain a waiver for this? I am able to max or meet the averages for the CFA (male averages) except for the B-Ball throw. I know this isn't a problem for most people (usually it's the opposite) but I'm just curious if any of you have experience with this.
Thanks!

Yes, there is a minimum weight requirement (I know because I was .4 lbs. from busting it when I weighed in). I also met or exceeded all of the averages on the CFA. What they did for people who couldn't afford to lose weight during BCT was they gave them supplements (Boost) in order to help them maintain (or in my case, gain) weight. As long as you have the ability to succeed physically I don't imagine you would be turned away for being a little underweight, though you should definitely work to get that up if possible.
Good luck!
