Just enlisted in the Navy after college (i'm in DEP), I want to be a SEAL, I want PRK....What are my options?
My ship out date is February 14th, 2012. I let my recruiters know I wanted to be a SEAL from day 1. I also let them know that I have contacts/gles. I went up to MEPS, busted out a 86 on the ASVAB, good C-SORT, and I picked a job. I took the SEAL PST last wednesday, the 20th and got really close to the "COMPETITIVE" scores on everything except the run, I went 8:31. My only question is.....what are my options. I want PRK regardless. I don't want to be disqualified obviously, I want to do this by the books. I was told there is a 6 month wait till I can get a SPECWAR contract after I get PRK. I am really confused with alot of information around different blogs. Should I wait? Oh and one big piece of info....today I had a screening at a very reputable Opthamology clinic, the Doc said my eyes are perfect for PRK and he can make my eyes 20/15 (better than 20/20). My recruiters on the other hand say not to get the surgery, but to just give them the full report from the doctors visit, which they will send to I have no idea who. I trust my recruiters very much, but I know they have a quota, I just want some insight. I want this bad, i'm getting into the best shape of my life, even better than my NCAA track career. I dont want to be screwed over! Thanks in advance for any help. I really appreciate it
