I'm an Army Vet. My son leaves for basic training on January 16th.
He got infantry, airborne school and option 40 which is RASP to be in the 75th Ranger regiment. Two hours before swearing in they told him he cant get airborne or RASP. He had to get a medical waiver for a past allergic reaction to penicillin. He no longer is allergic to penicillin. They told him the DA wont allow special schools to those with a medical waiver. He is hoping once he is in they will give him a slot to airborne and RASP. He was very disappointed but decided to swear in for just infantry. I'm very proud of him but will be praying for his safety. Go Army.
