Yes you can join the Air force with a history of asthma.
Go to a doctor and get a recommendation stating that you have had no asthma attacks / problems with asthma since "X" amount of time. Ensure that you are having no problems whatsoever with your asthma.
It is possible, but if you have full blown asthma and its not under control then no you can't join the Air Force.

No problem....Just don´t say anything about that....I used to have similar problems with the lungs when I was a kid....Not anymore....At Physical Examination I did not mention a word to the doctor....they accepted me......
But if you still have Asthma I would think it over.... Remember this scene in "Black Hawk Down"?
If you think you can do it, go for it! The doc won´t notice a thing if you keep your mouth shut.
