When I was first thinking of joining the military I set up an appointment with a recruiter from the Navy, AF, and Army. I told each of them that I have mild asthma and and have been prescribed medication for it in the past although I really never used it. Each one of them told me to enlist and say that I do not have asthma even when asked when taking the physical. I did not feel good about the whole thing but I ended up listening to them. I am now sworn into the AF and have a shipment date. I have been running 2-3 miles daily in preparation and notice that occasionally it becomes hard to breathe but I do not use a inhaler because I have not had one for 5 years. I will be able to breathe normally again after I sit for about 40mins. As that date comes nearer I am getting more concerned about the situation. I know that there are people that join the military and find out that they have mild asthma. Could I maybe just take this aproach if I do have any problems? Or are they going to check my medical history. What should I do?
