My son hopes to attend West Point or USAFA. He has Pectus excavatum. The Dr. said it is up to us whether or not to fix it. My son does not like the look of his chest but no medical reason to fix. Does untreated Pectus excavatum cause a DODmerb flag? If we proceed with the surgery will it be a disqualification in the future? It would be the Nuss Procedure? With removal approx. 6 months before graduation from HS. Does WP and USAFA follow the same DODmerb?
