When I was 17 I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Since then I do not need to use any type of insulin or oral medication to control. Just diet and exericise alone. Would that disqualify me for joining?

If you are now at normal blood sugar readings through diet and exercise, just don't mention the previous diagnosis and see if the basic blood tests they give let you in. Just because you had it before, does not mean you have it now.
Go for it, you just might make it and keeping fit will keep it away. Good luck.

I'm a 45 year old woman and was recently diagnosed as being a borderline diabetic. My doctor prescribed some medication, but before filling it I decided to do some research on the internet which led me to the methods. After reading this ebook and applying the methods, my scepticism turned to 100% belief. I noticed that my energy levels increased significantly and I felt more rested in the morning, my symptoms started going away.
I am very happy to tell you that I have been feeling better than I have felt in years and my doctor informed me that he will be taking me off my prescriptions if I keep this up.
I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

Both Type I and Type II Diabetes are disqualifying medical conditions for enlistment into the Armed Forces.

I think it would be INSANE to disqualify someone on those grounds. They have all kinds of rapists and drunks/druggies in the military. What's diabetes have to do with it? It should be about you passing the physical.

It would be an automatic disqualification but you could ask for a waiver.
