friends injury
My friend has broken his leg and has two metal pins inserted; he really wanted to have a career in the RAF.
Is it still possible for him to have a career in the RAF?
Any advice
Cheers

I would say he'd have no problems so long as his mobility isn't affected. Lots of different jobs to go for in the RAF though so more info might help.
This is a list of reasons his application would be rejected.
to be fair I suspect this one doesn't mean properly repaired broken limbs

Well, if they're shear pins he could get a job as a tow bar.
