Hello Dozer,

Thank you for the response. From your answer it sounds as though I can wear an orthotic during training? Or did I misunderstand you? Sorry if I did. I definitely am not going to lie during the medical exam, but from what I have read it would be quite a pain to make it through SFAS without at least a partial correction from a small orthotic slipped into standard issue boots. Not impossible, but since there are so many guys here with firsthand knowledge, I figured someone may know if orthotics are allowed or not.

Thank you for the advice and I absolutely will not let some paper pusher prevent me from getting at least an opportunity to make it.

Ed
