The Army docs would NOT waive it, even tho the CMO had recommended it and had 3 consults from audiologists that stated the hearing loss due to tinnitus was not bad enough to keep me from serving and wouldn't be a problem.
(I did the same thing with the buttons  )
Now I have been told that the NG does not send waiver requests to USAREC and to go the NG/SF route. Fingers crossed. I dont know why they ask for consults (3) and never read them.
Great site, I searched for this one. And posted my intro and filled out profile.

If I were you, I would do some research and see what is said on this site about the selfishness of age waivers and the rationale for having age limits.
