It's not disqualifying for any branch. But, you have to take into account whether or not the individual has Meniere's Syndrome which is an inbalance of the inner ear and produces symptoms much like seasickness. That is a disqualifying condition.

seasickness is not a permanent condition... it is a temporary affliction for people who aren't used to having their equilibrium distorted. If you stay on a boat long enough you get your "sea legs"...and the sickness wears off. An aircraft carrier doesn't bobble in the ocean like a small boat either...so it wouldn't be as bad as if you were on a private charter fishing trip.
As far as I know, there is nothing that says someone who throws up while at sea can't fly an aircraft or work on a carrier.

No, silly. Sea sickness would disqualify you from the NAVY! It's not sea sickness...it's motion sickness and it's caused by inner ear sensing motion that the eyes are not perceiving. The brain gets confused...and the result is you get sick.
