8 years ago, I lost my right pinky finger when it got crushed. My ring finger, while still attached, can't be moved at the top joint. I also got bit by a copperhead on the other hand, I can't move my left index finger at the top joint. I'm right handed, none of this affects my daily functioning. Would I be rejected from the military? I'm in college right now, hoping to get an commission in the US military (preferably USMC). Would I still be able to do this? Pic related, it's my right hand.
Will post pics of my other hand if requested.

Yeah you'd get rejected.
Only one way to find out. Go to your recruiter's office. If they give you some shit, ask if there's any way you can get a waiver. They may like the enthusiasm
>>35005684
Haha, fuck no.

You should be able to squeeze a trigger properly enough to shoot your disgusting crippled self in the head.

I'm thinking about that, but I'm not looking to enlist right now. I don't know if they'd hassle me over that.
>>35005684
I almost scored nearly perfect on my practice ASVAB, don't know if that would change their minds or not.
>>35005684
Not a chance. This is practically peace time, they can be selective.

This is a good point, no lie

No harm in just asking. Marine recruiters are cool guys for the most part, they wont be bothered sitting down with you for 5 minutes. Just tell em what you told us and that you think you have what it takes (BS flattery)
I had a guy in Tech School who was missing their ring finger. He lost it as a child, but was able to show that it didn't debilitate him in MEPS. See if you can get a waiver, worst they can do is say no.

You sound like a stupid motherfucker. Hope they reject you.
>>35005684
How did you lose it?
>>35005684
Fuck all these retards, pretty honest reasonable question. Must be shit to have lost that, still I imagine it could've been a lot worse. If you can't get in yet then who knows, maybe there's an advanced prosthetic you can get your hands on in a few years.

Thanks for the honest answers. It sucked, but yeah, it could have been worse.
does this effect you much in day to day life outside of...uh, computers? i gotta admit im a plebian who half penguin types half touch types, so this wouldn't effect me, but...also wouldn't effect me in any other part of life either. can you tell use about any issues this creates?
I lost my whole left hand and they let me in. Don't give up.

how
>>35005684
At least you aren't "Disarmed "
On the other "hand" you appear to have a "shortcoming" in your quest.

I told them I'd give them a hand, so they said welcome aboard.
>>35005684
aren't humans slowly losing their pinky anyways? also how is jacking off? did you loose it late enough in life to notice a difference? pinky doesn't do much but still wondering
>>35005684
