I currently serve in the Guard as an 11A. Unfortunately, I suffered hearing loss and tinnitus while MOUT training in Leschy Town at Fort Lewis as an M60 gunner -- why they wanted us to take M60s into that town to clear buildings is beyond me, but I can't complain too much... I volunteered for it, thought it would be cool, look tough like Rambo, etc and the Govt has now given me free hearing aids to boot.
Thanks! Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I seriously doubt that very many, if any med waivers are being issued right now, but as we tell everyone, a trip to the MEPS station will provide an official response.
