It is hard, I joined the military to get myself out but I also know there are numerous applicants that are physically fit but could not pass the medical screening.

My dad also joined the military to get out of poverty in Mississippi. His brothers didn’t and a couple still live in a sharecropper’s shack on the family property, the rest in trailers. They have no money to move.
