Athletic capability is paramount for survival in military basic training and successful service. Orthopedic conditions are common reasons for hospitalization and premature discharge of military recruits. Medical fitness for military service is determined through a medical examination. Individuals medically disqualified may receive a waiver to enter the service on a case-by-case basis. This study was carried out to determine how individuals with a medical waiver for knee problems compared to recruits without a history of knee injury regarding hospitalization and military discharge.
