Question
Ok I was discharged from the air force with a jfm 2q re code. For having asthma. Since then I've had several test to prove that I have never had asthma in my life. I also had a methacoline challenge test that came back negative for asthma. What are my chances for relistment into the navy?
The only way to tell is to take the supporting documentation to the Navy and see. The decsiions are not mine to make, but if you have CURRENT like with in th elast 30 days, proof that you have NEVER had asthma...then they can not refrute it. If you run into roadblocks...contact your state rep or congressman and have them run a quiry

I have spent the past 20 years in the U.S. Air Force, 3 years was assigned as an Enlisted Accessions Recruiter. I have been deployed various times to several locations. If it is a career in the military you are looking for or thinking about I most likely have the answer. I still have contacts with in the recruiting field and if I don't know the answer then I have folks who do where I can find the answer. I am very blunt and straight forward and will make no attempts to BS you. I will give you the best information that I possible can can. If you think that you cant handle the answer that I give you, then don't ask the question...... If you are planning on joining the military, your number 1 decision factor in making this kind of move is that you need to be more concerned about serving your country than your country serving you!! All the benefits are the best that you can find. Education is at a premium right now and its the most rewarding thing that you can do. If I dont answer right away probably means that I am busy, but have patience, I will get to you.
