I am hoping my daughter has a similar positive outcome, but was told yesterday that any "issue that is of historical nature such as dislocation of the patella, you will be disqualified by DODMERB standards". My DD had a patella dislocation her sophomore year of high school with a ligament repair & completely recovered without any issues the last 2.5 years. She is a 2 sport athlete and has no residual issues. I was surprised to hear this after things I have read on this forum. Fingers crossed that we can obtain a waiver.
