Actually if you can pass a breathing test you can get a medical waiver to serve in the military, maybe not in a combat role but definitely in a support role, in comparison,
During his junior year at the Naval Academy, Staubach's color-blindness was detected and he was commissioned directly into the Supply Corps, which did not necessitate being able to tell the difference between red (port) and green (starboard) lights or to discern the color differences in electrical circuitry.[17]
After graduating from the Naval Academy in June 1965,[18] Staubach could have requested an assignment in the United States, but he chose to volunteer for a one-year tour of duty in South Vietnam. He served as a Supply Corps officer for the Navy at the Chu Lai Base Area until 1967. Staubach supervised 41 enlisted men.[19]

f*xxy's ready for the rubber room.

If you have asthma can you still leap tall building in a single bounce, pull sunken bodies from the depth of the sea, drive 18 wheelers at the speed of light, twirl a 20 ft log chain like a helicopter blade, all while licking melted ice cream from the cone in July?

If you have a chronic disease such as asthma the military WILL NOT ACCEPT YOU, deferment isn't even considered.

I think it would have been better had bone spurs been his problem.

Is that after he gave his football spot up to Roger at West Point

Was this breathing problem discovered before or after he scaled the side of a burning 10 story building to rescue 25 people carrying each one to the ground on his back. Performing CPR on half of them and loaning one poor old black lady one of his lungs. ?

1g said the same statement as I did

Biden received five student draft deferments, first as an undergraduate at the University of Delaware and later as a law student at Syracuse University.

And after a medical exam in April 1968, he received the "1-Y" classification, which meant he could only be drafted in a national emergency.

Biden released his Selective Service records to the Associated Press in 2008. At the time, a spokesperson said he was "disqualified from service because of asthma as a teenager," per The News Journal. https://www.usatoday.com/st...809482002/

Poor smurf doesn't get it. You have to be breathing very good to play football and be a lifeguard. That is if you even believe that he was either.

So?
