it depends on what hand...i have a friend that lost his left index finger from the knuckle up and the tip of his middle finger and he was able to still reenlist and train since he was able to prove that he could still do his job without the finger...you need the right index to fire the weapon...good luck!

The fact that you where playing with a 2 inch mortar should disqualify you

The index finger is a vital digit, when having to strip and assemble weaponry, I would imagine that alone is enough to bar you from joining the military.

I don't know for sure but what I do know is that they are very picky about any disability whatsoever. Your best bet is to just talk to a recruiter.
