Hello My name is Abraham Mauricio, I am a resident of Fort Lauderdale Florida. I applied to the United States Naval Academy, backed with a congressional nominations. Received a conditional offer of appointment to NAPS, pending graduation and a medical waiver for my vision. I was definitely not worried until I received a letter that the Naval Academy choose to uphold my medical Disqualification. Now I'm here and by the grace and favor of god I'm going to get this stone out of my way. This whole admissions process to the Naval Academy has been especially grueling on me, I faced a lot of challenges and beat them all, this one is next. I am going to be an Infantry officer (0301) in the United States Marine Corps; The Marines are hard and the Infantry is hard as well, no one gets there by quitting, and neither am I.
With that said I request that anybody who post here does not mention the words "I" or "you" can't, NAPS/ Plebe summer cadre hate this term and we should all eliminate it from our vocabulary. Please focus on information that is constructive to my cause, even if its words of support.
For more specifics I have near sightedness, i don't know the exact numbers , i can guess its pretty high if they tried to DQ me. I've made an appointment with my own optometrist and she's going to get me up to date with exactly how my eye's are. She's disposed to help me, and she'd like to see what are the medical standards, and what exactly does DODMERB have me down as. So First off, could someone let me know how to get DODMERB's evaluation of me.
Any help, or even any tidbit of information would be helpful. I'll be doing a lot of research so I will be piecing together any knowledge you guys give me.
Thanks soo much ahead of time.
