Guest guest Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 Dear Jovan: You are a good strong contributor to the country, and to the group. I am most delighted that some of the money I sent to uncle last year might have helped pay for your surgery! Glad your surgery went well, and hope that the rest of your service to the country does, also. Thank you. Cammie > Hi there, > > I just thought that I should weigh in on this one because I am in the military (Army) and I just has upper, lower and genio on March 24. I must also note that I am very pleased with the results. Yes, it is true that the military will not take on a patient that already has braces in place and the reason behind this is because when you are going through initial training there is no time allotted for basic maintenance of braces (or any other medical condition that requires one to be away from training--thus the extensive medical screening), however, once you finish initial trainining and are assigned to a duty station you have the option to get braces. (It is not uncommon to see many soldiers with braces nowadays.) And just think, it didn't cause me a penny. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
