could i still join the united states airforce because i have dual passports.
well i still basiCALLY HAVE ASTHMA BUT IV BEEN EXERCSING HARD FOR 5 DAYS AND AM PLANNIGN ON DOING IT FOR 5 WEEKS. I DO 4 2 MILE RUINS A DAY. DO I STILL HAVE A CHANCE OF EVAN JOINING THE USAF
Running everyday doesn't really have the same effect on the body as being at 35,000 feet on 100% oxygen in a jet, or hauling kit across a sandy place in 40 degree heat.

Point is, there are plenty of applicants with 100% health who excel at the selection boards and it's just a matter of picking the best of them. I have apparently 6/6 vision but could have slight myopia so they failed me, and I can see why. Why take a person who isn't as good as the next? The RAF can afford to be picky at selection.


If you want to join the USAF, I believe you need a degree to join as an officer. Have a look here: http://www.airforce.com/careers/officer/careers.php
