I'm another wannabe for the USNR's DirComm program. I am up for the March Intel boards, and my recruiter thinks I have a 'fair' shot at selection. I am a little outside the age norm (37 in April), but I have a solid background & work experience.
I blew my knee playing soccer last winter, and had ACL reconstruction surgery in July 2007 (Allograft - AKA cadaver replacement). I am through the rehab, and have started running again to get back into shape. My ortho has cleared me, and I can start playing competitive sports again in May 2008 (with a brace for the first 90 - 180 days). My recruiter told me this would be the big 'If' in in my application. I have been told to relax, and worry about it after the selection boards, but I would hate to get that far only to find out the knee is an issue. I'm applying anyway, but I hate not knowing. Anyone know if this would be huge red flag?
