The wisdom I received on the matter:

"I am red-green color deficient. I have never been able to pass any color vision test given but for the one that matters. I can see color just like you and can pass the vivid red/vivid green test. They're going to have you look into a little machine and you'll see a rectangle with one side red and one side green. Identify which is which and you're good to go.

My whole career is filled with physicals where block 66 reads "Color Vision (Test used and result): PIP 10/14 - FAILED" but the block that counts (block 59)says "RED/GREEN (Army Only) - Vivid Red/Green PASS"

You have nothing to worry about for Army SOF.

Next time search more and follow the instructions you were given upon registering though. These guys don't take kindly to people who don't follow instructions and neither will your instructors should you elect to pursue an 18X option."
