For those military faggots, when it comes to basic training, i have latent emphysema, however the disease is dormant. From what i can tell, it affects me in no way, i can still run, and do shit. However, since it is technically a disqualifier, the recruiter had told me to just omit the disease, and do basic training anyways. I am assuming basic training is not really that hard, especially seeing all the fat fuck army cadets around. And i can run and do exercise without a problem. However the SGLI portion may have some explaining to do, since the prior medical, would show some clear damage to the pulmonary system. How serious is this offense?

Yeah I just took a brief look at that. Not sure if I like the new test. You used to be able to do a PT test just about anywhere but now it looks like you need equipment or access to a facility of some sort.

I think the OP's main concern will still be the run though.

Yes, and the SDC (Sprint / Drag / Carry). 250m (~275 yards) of sprinting, dragging 90lbs, carrying 80lbs. Seems that would challenge the respiratory issues quite a bit.

Yeah you're right. The short bursts are probably even harder than just keeping a steady pace for 2 miles. It was 15 mins to pass or something like that iirc. Super easy. To max your score was 13 mins which still isn't that hard.

I am also a firefighter, so am used to heavy dragging, lifting, and SCBAs. Like i said, the pulmonary condition is there, however i can still exert strength for many hours before any true symptoms would ever show. At worst, ive had minor heart palpitations, no different from someone out of shape
