Anyway, this is the current reqs - right off of U.S. Air Force ROTC - College Scholarships and Careers

Pilot

Normal color vision
Distant vision: Uncorrected 20/70, but corrected to 20/20
Near vision: Uncorrected 20/30, but corrected to 20/20
Meet refraction, accommodation and astigmatism requirements
Corrective eye surgery could be a disqualifier
Have no history of hay fever, asthma or allergies after age 12
Meet Air Force weight and physical conditioning requirements
Have standing height of 64 to 77 inches and sitting height of 34 to 40 inches
I meet all those requirements except for that one. I have mild hay fever that is controlled by medication only in the spring time.
