Hi folks,
I was wondering about the hearing requirements for recruits/commissioned marines. I'm interested in going to PLC or OCC, but my hearing is... well it isn't the best. I haven't had my hearing tested in a while, but I know I won't get a very good score. What is the BARE minimum in terms of hearing requirements? My buddy that was a Marine said that he met quite a few guys in the Corps that had downright BAD hearing... he said you could always tell who the artillery guys were (not to joke about the artys).
How hard is it to get a waiver for shatty hearing? Are there other factors that might make up for my bad hearing?
Fill me in!
