Hi Cayden,

yes you can but it will limit your career opportunities. Found out I was partially colored blind when I went thru my initial physical and that meant I could not be firefighter. A few years later I was given different test and it showed a limited color vision problem. When you talk to your recruiter ask if they offer any other tests besides the standard numbers in the circle flip book. Good luck.
Thank you comment icon Yes it’s possible and they’ll provide you a selection of jobs you’ll qualify for. R J

Hi Cayden Yes, it is possible to join the military if you're color blind, but it may limit the roles you can qualify for. Each branch has specific medical standards and job requirements, so it's important to check with a recruiter to understand how your condition might affect your eligibility.
