Having been thru what you are going thru, I can tell you there is a policy, though not adheared to by all MEPS, that anyone receiving a waiver to enlist cannot receive BAC in their initial contract. This means no 11X w/ airborne, option 40 (Ranger contract), or 18X for anyone receiving a waiver for anything medical.

You can play hardball or just wait your time like TR has suggested. I would doubt the hardball approach will get you far based on my experience and that of another board member here but anything is worth a shot. All they can say is no, and they have said that once already.

Sorry I do not have better news for you.

Best of luck to you.
