Ship 05 is a blast! He will have plenty to entertain him while waiting for his paperwork.. On the negative side, I've only personally seen three people go from SEPS back to a DIV, but the battle can be faught and it can happen, It just depends on if they want to issue the waiver.

THU maybe... I don't recall the 2nd/3rd floor being a very happy place.

They've loosened the grip. When we walked them they were always in a somewhat good mood. But Many of them were medical, and they seemed happier than the admins.

In light of the death that occurred last week at boot, I would think a medical waiver for high blood pressure that "could" lead to heart problems later, might be a hard thing to get at this point...even if the death was not blood pressure related but died due a slip and fall and hitting their head.,..rather minor IMO

I would say it might depends on just how high his blood pressure is and how much it fluctuates.

I agree!! There will be alot of subtle changes that will occur i'm sure.

My biggest question is, what do they consider HBP?

I got flagged at MEPS, then again in P-Days, but they never really mentioned it again, I just had to give them one "good" BPT so.. IDK how severe it must have to be to get seperated for it. But it's not like an instant "oh yours is high, NO NAVY FOR YOU!"
