For what branch of service would I be better suited? Does having scarification and astigmatism disqualify you from serving?
Id like to do something with learning a new language, preferably German, and be able to travel around a lot. Like an analyst or translator. I already know some Spanish but would also like to become fluent in it. I was wondering which branch can offer me the best experience for what Im looking to do.
Im also wondering if the military views scarification the same as tattoos. I have scarification designs on my left shoulder and chest but are covered by my shirt so they are not visible. I wear glasses all the time and Im not legally allowed to drive without them. Having astigmatism in both eyes my vision is not the greatest. Would these automatically disqualify me from serving in any of the branches?
Im going to talk with recruiters this week but id like to hear from others as well. Please and Thank you.
