Yeah, I know, you've all told me that I'm never going to get into any branch of the military with only one kidney. The Army has already disqualified me and now I'm in the middle of trying to enlist in the Air Force. People keep telling me that I have no chance of joining, but I'm making more progress than you've all expected. My recruiter has my medical papers and he knows all about my one kidney. And yet, he didn't turn me down and give me an automatic disqualification. He said I can go take the ASVAB, which I took today and scored a 94 on, and then he said that he'll send my scores down to be looked at so that I can be considered for MEPS.
So....when does this so-called "automatic disqualification" show up, because I ain't seeing it. I took the ASVAB, scored high on it, and now I'm being considered for MEPS. And what happens when my recruiter says I'm in the clear for MEPS? What happens when I pass the physical and MEPS lets me swear in? What happens when they notice that my one kidney doesn't impede me in any way? Chances are you all will still be saying "You're never gonna get in! You're disqualified!"
I honestly just typed this up because I like that I'm proving you guys wrong so far. I've made it farther than any of you have anticipated and I'm just the type of guy who likes to rub things in.

With that kind of attitude... you’ve already failed. Even if you do make it. Learning a little humility goes a long way.

You remind me of, Needlemeyer, from the movie, 'Animal House'.
You'll probably get out of the Army the same way he did too with that chip you carry on your shoulder.
Take care.

I give it to you you have some brass balls. To come on here with your and try to slap people in the face trying to brag. One thing you forgot even though the Military is a large operation your name travels way father than you ever will. For you to come on here make a post like this with your name up at the top. You sir have already screwed yourself.

Yea, you will do well in the military......
Rubbing in and gloating will get a soap and a towel, Then ostracization from your peers and I see a wall to wall counselling in your future if you don't change your attitude young man.
If you make it past MEPS you are in. Admission rules change as the needs of the military service change. SO, whats good now may not be good down the road.
Good luck you will need it..

I was born with a single kidney on my right side and it’s 1.5 times it’s normal size and I never told anyone because I feared I would be rejected from the navy. Yet they found out I have flat feet and they still let me enlist. I completed 8 years of active duty and got out under honorable condition.

You need to slow down. The military wants men and women with a good mindset, not a person that is angry. They have enough problems already. be a good person with a good attitude and you'll do just fine. Good Luck
