To an officer recruiter
I'm a parent of a son currently taking an ADHD med. He is 13 and expressing an interest in flying for the USCG. I have looked over the medical issues in applying to (any) service and notice that a waver would probably be required from the DoDMERB due to a YES on the question are to taking drugs or have you ever taken drugs related to ADD or ADHD. Can anyone, preferably a DOD officer recruiter, tell me if current or past use of medications for the control of ADD or ADHD have ever received a waver?? I don't want to point my son down a road there is no chance to crossing. you can PM if you wish.
