I told him to at least consider the Navy again. With what you said, what kills me...

Just how lazy Recruitment was. It was pulling teeth to get them to do anything. The USAF guy made phone calls and at least halfway pressed the issue. NOW...Where I am PISSED is that if hearing is a D.Q., WHY was Thomas not told LAST year?? I also went off on a MEPS guy two days ago when I asked....If an automatic D.Q. Why the Eff did you guys send him for a C Scan of his ear??? He said if there was any questions or inquiries, it would cover them. To which I replied. A C Scan on HIS time and on HIS dime?? I might have pressed the right buttons because I had another MEPS E-7 tell me he would contact HIS Superior and see if Thomas can get a regular USAF test and NOT MEPS. Said he was not overly fond of the MEPS structure.

But what you said....I keep hearing about all the Recruitment shortcomings and then they Jerry people around. And what my Son cannot hear is a tone that you can ONLY hear in a sound proof booth with a head set. Taken that test 35-40 times in my life and if you even BREATHE you will not hear it. HOW does that keep a kid out of the Military??????

  Thanks. I haven't felt this helpless in a long time. I'm gonna keep digging and be a PITA to MEPS and Recruitment.

Ramgator90September 21, 2024 01:47PM

  All the reason it frustrates me. They cannot get 100% healthy kids to even look at a Recruiting Office

  Anything government run is a joke..

sstrams108September 21, 2024 05:55PM

  Two days ago, I had a USAF E-7, who is a MEPS Liaison tell me that.

Ramgator91September 22, 2024 02:44AM

  Literally a week after the Berlin Wall went down, you could see the decline. It's why I left the USAF.

Ramgator92September 22, 2024 03:06AM

  Part of the problem is what you mention..

sstrams92September 22, 2024 06:44AM

  I know two young men....

21Dog118September 22, 2024 05:01AM

  In just the past week, I have had a few people tell me the same. BUUT...

Ramgator83September 22, 2024 08:00AM

  sorry......didn't mean to be discouraging

21Dog108September 22, 2024 10:19AM

  NOOOOO. Not at all discouraging.

Ramgator108September 22, 2024 05:11PM

  I ain't giving up and neither is my Son. We still have ONE more card that might happen.

Ramgator129September 21, 2024 01:55PM

  Something that has really made me say WTF?? from VERY early in the game..
