-I got discharged a few years back for a medical condition. In the civilian world I got the condition medically treated, doing exactly what the military doctors advised me to do requalify to reenter.
-However I got caught in a beaurocratic snafu where because of two regs written decades apart, which essentially tie the doctors hands up as far as letting me in.
-It's been made clear to me by both my civilian AND the military entrance doctors their is no good physical reason I can't reenlist (or commision at this point) in the US military. It's just a case where Form A says I have to be status X to get in, Form B says if I'm status X I can't get in. And the two forms only both apply because of a poorly written paperwork catch-22, they were blatantly obviously not written to be taken together, but due to a quirk they have to be.
-A recruiters I talked to and a doctor both said the same thing... contact your Congressman and see what he can do.
-Anyone try this? Does it actually work?
