Hey Marines.

I was looking at mos 5811. And I noticed that you need to be 5'5" (waiverable to 5'2".) I'm 5'4". How hard is it to get a waiver for that?

Thanks for your time.

If it's waiverable to 5'2 and you are 5'4, then it's waiverable. Should be simple. Check with the recruiter.

The only problem you might encounter is if your recruiter doesn't want to bother with a poolee who needs a waiver. If they don't mind getting you the waiver, should be a relatively simple and quick process.

You're going to be too short to reach the pedals in the patrol cars.
