Knee Braces?

[npak97]

Does anybody know if knee braces will be allowed at BCT?

Highly unlikely.

Edit -- what kind of knee brace? First thing I thought was: ACL tear/recovery?

No, no tears or anything like that. Just heard that tendonitis and knee problems were common so I was wondering whether or not I could wear them as a preventive measure.

I have two cadets that went through Basic, and ended up with some knee problems.

I will contact them tomorrow and find out if they were allowed to wear a knee brace

My DD sprained her ankle during 2nd BCT. They put her in an ankle brace.

I just don't know if they will allow a brace if it isn't prescribed by the clinic.
