Can I join the Air Force if I had clubfoot surgery when I was a child?

I had clubfoot and I had surgery to correct it, which was successful. I do have a slight size difference between my two feet. I also have a slightly limited range of motion on my affected foot. However, I can run,jump and support myself on both feet relatively the same.

    You would have to see what the Dr. says. But, each branch might be different, meaning, that if you can't get into the Air Force because of your situation, you might be able to get into the Army, Navy, Marines.

    If you do join, you would have a complete physical from head to toe, inside and out, and 1 thing I remember having to do is squat (like a baseball catcher) and walk while you squat. If you can do that with no problem, that you should be able to join. I hope this helped you some, and good luck and God bless.

    almost probably which you will get deployed so in case you do no longer go with to bypass to Iraq, i might think of roughly getting a various non protection rigidity job. There are no ensures approximately any job no longer getting deployed. They set up many single mothers and fathers. because of the fact of this you're able to have a newborn care plan in place as quickly as you get on your first duty station. And that has to incorporate the two a short term and long term care service. All single mothers and fathers and twin protection rigidity human beings go with them. and of direction there is Korea, likely in case you get sent there, your newborn won't have the means to bypass with you the two. you are able to ask and request yet there is a lot of paperwork and maximum in lots of situations that's no. good success with in spite of determination you're making

    The only one that can answer that is the doctor at the MEPs station.

    Talk to your recruiter and he'll take you down.
