Army combat engineers but partially color blind?
- Category: Health & Medical
I have a friend who wants to be a combat engineer officer but he is partially color blind. He can tell the difference between colors until you put two colors side by side, is he able to branch combat engineers? Or is there a waiver that would allow that?

Maybe, but maybe not. Combat engineers need to deal with electric lines lots of times, and those wires happen to be, you guessed it, green and red. Talk to the program recruiting officer out at the area and he will be able to tell you better than anyone else or get back to you with a good answer.
