Petition Action

people with mild astma allowed to join armed forces

Additional Information

i want to be a soldier in the armed forces,but i cant at the moment because i have a very mild asthma, but im am very fit and will pass all fitness tests required ,my asthma don't bother me in the slightest ,i can run a mile in 7 mins do a 150 pushups in 2mins 150 situps 2mins 100 pullups in 3mins im extremely strong and haven't had asthma attack since i was 5,the only thing that stops me is legislation and the rules about asthma ,i don't think this is right, because they effectively put every asthmatic in the same category,chronic or mild it doesn't matter, even if you pass medical they will find out later and medically discharge you on the grounds that you had or have still got asthma,
