So, number one on your list is to go somewhere and get a through physical including a through eye exam. This will tell you that you won`t be shuttled off in some kind of crappy job as garbage officer in Podunk Iowa if you accept commissioning and can`t fly. Good luck to you. I hope you make it. It was the best (and worse) 8 years of my life.
There is a problem with being an officer and serving your country and that being a priority?

Maybe this was the cause of those times being some of the "worse") 8 years of your life.
