For what branch of service would I be better suited? Does having scarification and astigmatism disqualify you from serving?

Your question is extremely complex. Your vision aspects, while obv relevant, are less of interest to me in trying to suggest an answer, than your interests, ambitions, and prior training and/or work. Imdulge me: Take the time to really elaborate on all of those aspects, in copious detail. Include hobbies, reading preferences with actual books, both light and serious. Include sports, esp. martial arts, hiking, mountain climbing, high school level, college level, etc. Describe how much exercise you do, whether your weight is in bounds, if you run or jog at all, be as specific as you can. The more you relate ajdmcompose into a really thoroughly detailed narrative, the more I and/or others her can potentially try to held you. Explain specifically what coursework you've taken, what field(s) might interest you. You omitted USMC and USCG from your vote list, as well as the USPHS, NOAA, and the merchant marine (USMS). Most don't generally kmow of the latter group of services, I've found. Does flight interest you, anything related to sailing? Have you flown before? Do clinical topics and/or ambitions interest you? Have you traveled at all? What languages do you speak now, at all, however fragmentarily? Or read or write? Do you wamt grad school? Have you done any grad school? Would you want enlisted, warrant, or commissioned? What serious militarnand/or naval history have you read, and, if any, how much? Do you understand how the various services, all of them, not just the ones that interest you, are organized, in detail? Those are the kinds of things I'd seriously ask you to consider providing, so far as you !might care to explain. Please understand, I only suggest all that to try to help you as concretely, and factually as possible, I entirely realize you might only wish to go into a limited nu!Ber of those topics I suggest, my suggestions were intended to engender thought on your part, first, if nothing else, honest. I hope that was of at least some potential use and/or interest, if you'd care to chat further, I'd of course be most willing to do so anuti!e, by all !eams, !any thanks.

Andrea Lozano Andrea, below are a couple of websites that should answer many of your questions. I would do more research first, so you know what questions to ask the recruiters. Please keep in mind the purpose of the military. I doubt that you will be able to travel as much as you like, or you might not like where they send you.

I would 100% say Navy. For the scarification, i dont know if you need a waiver but even if you do, it would be easy to get the waiver for it (AS LONG AS YOU DONT DO IT WHILE YOU ARE IN THE SERVICE). The navy seems to have one of the most progressive tattooing policies in the armed service as well. For your eyes, that would just restrict you from some of the jobs; however, anything that deals with learning a language, I would think you would be fine as long as you have your corrective lenses or contacts in.
