The MOS 11 series is open to Red Green color blindness. That should apply to officers too.

Generally, you can be partially color blind and work in many ground combat-related Army jobs, but you must be able to distinguish between red and green. The Army's MOS 11X Infantryman-type jobs allow you to be partially color blind if you can distinguish between red and green.
