I will shorten this story up quite a bit. Short and to the point. I enlisted AD in the USCG and went to basic in June of 2009. A few weeks in I got incredibly sick and could not get better. (I have all medical documentation from sick call). After another week or so I got discharged (I was told medically). Upon receiving my paperwork it showed a RE-3G with JFY for Adjustment Disorder. As soon as I got home (the day after) I went to the hospital for the sickness, and they said I had a severe case of pneumonia and the early symptoms of the Swine Flu. I am trying to re-enlist in the Air Force or Army Reserves to start (to finish my Bachelor's degree), then look to commission.

What are the chances of getting a waiver for this condition as it was almost 10 years ago. I have since gotten married, had two kids, became a cop for four years, gotten my associates degree, and moved up in my ranks at work significantly. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks all.

So, I wound up working four years assigned to the TOTALLY the wrong place, working for the wrong people, for all the wrong reasons, when NONE of it had been necessary, had I known what questions to ask, and who to ask, instead of just leaping without looking, doing without asking, and not having been given four or five days to decide where I wanted to spend minimum the next four years...trust me, as I'd said, been there, done that (BTDT), I assure you, OK?

I wanted to see if you were able to re-enlist or if you were able to get the waiver?
