A wannabe that's slightly discouraged.

Everybody has to pass the Physical Fitness Test (PFT) and Combat Fitness Test (CFT) annually - even after bootcamp. But, grunts have to carry heavy objects with both hands routinely as part of their jobs. Eventhough you have your heart set on being an 0311, a smarter choice may be a job that does not require lifting/carrying as much weight thereby putting less stress on that wrist, and increasing your chances of continued service (vice a medical discharge). Something to consider, and talk over with your recruiter (there are lots of jobs that don't require lifting/carrying anything).

Well if that’s still the case two years from now hopefully their is still a job that’ll get me as close to “grunt life” as possible and for as long as possible as well.

Hey man, wait and see how your wrist heals and go from there. Just do all the right things to get it to heal the right way. PT, rehab, etc.
