Nope when I was 17 I did the whole recruitment process and took all the tests, but when I stopped playing sports they found that I was a type 1 diabetic. Telling that to a recruiter stops his phone calls pretty quick.

Re: Have you served in this country's armed forces?

no, was turned down. Father was in the army, grandfather was too. Thank you to all the troops. You are the main reason we can all do what it is that we want to.
