Hello. I have some questions about bankhart stabilization surgery on my shoulder and it affecting my eligibility to be a candidate for marine OCS. I am being recommended to get this minor arthroscopic surgery but I am hesitant because I do not want it to make me ineligible to join. Please let me know your thoughts on this. Thank you.

No one in DoD is authorized to recommend, endorse, or even comment on any medical treatment. That's a decision relegated specifically between the patient and physician.
That said, """"in general,"""" the USMC is hard over on any shoulder instability for medical waivers for accession.
