They would know best. More than likely you got a failure to adapt discharge which is neither good or bad. Depending on the branch you choose to go into, a repeat of basic is not likely. SSG Brian G.

That would require a waiver. I can almost guarantee you the AF will not entertain the idea- they almost never give waivers to enlist. The Navy might consider it, but not likely. The army would require you to take and pass a full APFT before even entertaining the idea, so I imagine the other services have a similar requirement. <br /><br />If you did get in, yes you would need to go through that branches IET.
