Intestine Surgery?

[i_like_planes]

Hey everyone. When I born I was diagnosed with Ileal Atresia and had surgery at 3 days old. Since then everything has been working as it should and I haven't had any issues. The only noticeable impact is a 10 inch scar across my belly. Is there any chance that this condition/surgery can disqualify me from going to the Naval Academy? Thanks in advance.

That's why we do the exam and medical history evaluation. When that is submitted to us, we'll evaluate. The report that the surgery was "successful," is certainly a good sign.

That's great to hear! Thanks for your response.
