Hi there,
I posted a question about a year ago. Since then I have been busy with obtaining my NREMT certification and attempting to "move on" so to speak. I was still curious about if anyone had advice for my situation.
I am a medical discharge from the US Army, my separation code was "JFW" with a reentry code of "3". I have been told that it requires a waiver in my case, my main issue has been finding a recruiter that is genuinely willing to work with me? I can't tell if it's because I MYSELF am a lost cause, or if it's recruiters being flaky. Please don't take that the wrong way either - I'm just sort of confused as to why my Navy recruiter has ghosted me. I tried going in the the office before, and they were busy and said that they needed more time. It has been another year. What should I do? Especially because I wanted (and still do) to serve?
Further details are that I needed a waiver for astigmatism (which the Army granted so I could go). I have something called "Symptomatic severe pes planus", which was WHY I was discharged.
Any advice or answers would be immensely appreciated.

"JFW" which stands for "erroneous enlistment medical condition disqualifying for military service, with no medical waiver approved." Plus being given an RE-3. You need a waiver just for that RE-3. BUT. You apparently have a medical condition that is not waiverable per military medical standards and requirements. So, that is why your Recruiter ghosted you.
So, here is what I recommend you do: Make a fist. Then.....let it go.

Unrequited love is painful and unhealthy. Move on to something that loves you back.

One way relationships...that's no way to go thru life. Creates unhealthy coping mechanisms.
