    Lie your face off on the physical. They are trigger happy to disqualify people. I got 2 permanent disqualifiers for a peanut allergy and the fact that I wear orthotics in my shoes when I run.

    I had to petition the National Guard bureau in D.C. just to get in.

            I had a rather pleasant experience going through MEPS way back when. The gayest part about it was when they send you into this room with some old white dude sitting in a chair. He will make you bend over and poke his finger in ur stinkhole. Okay, I don't really remember if he did all that, but I do remember my pants dropping. I think they did the cup the balls and cough thing. I'm not sure, it was so long ago, the repressed memories were put away in that box for a reason.

                I went to the one in San Diego. They're dicks. They also must deal with some of the dumbest people coming through there apparently. One guy was amazed by how quickly I did the friggin colorblindness test.

                Bend over and crack a smile...

                      Military Entrance Processing Station. It's where they poke and prod you to make sure you're not too defective for the military...

                            Nice, you'll be away from the direct action.

                              Thats a lie.

                              Combat Control is one part of Special Forces for the Air Force. They are the guys that drop into a combat zone, secure a perimeter, and construct a makeshift airstrip. I believe they are also FAA qualified air traffic controllers.
