Question
I am currently AD Air Force, and was diagnosed with sleepwalking a while back. It disqualified me from my AFSC, but I was able to re-enlist because I am still world wide qualified. It doesn't happen that much anymore and I really want to go to OTS...It has been my dream since I was young. Since I am still able to serve on Active Duty, will I be able to get my commission? I am a little less than a year away from submitting my application, so if there are steps I need to take, I have time. I am extremely determined and will fight for a place in OTS if need be. Any advice you can offer is greatly appreciated.
Hi Aaron,
It will require a medical waiver. Whether or not the waiver will be approved is anyone's guess.
