Let me tell you something. And you better listen. I am a man of few words and have spent more time thinking due to the isolation of my autism and deafness. You provide good points, but hear me out. There are other jobs in the military other than being on the front line. Trying to succeed in finding a job that I will excel at is my goal. And I will keep trying. No matter what. I don't care if I see action or not, I want to put my determined ass in the military to work my way up through networking and skill/certification building. Tell me, if you become deaf at the beginning of the action, you are in the same situation I would be in, yet I am more likely to keep in control of my situation due to my years of experience handling communication and communication devices without hearing aids to compensate. I have focused and trained eyes, keeping in account my entire environment due to my tendency to get my ass whupped by these Mormon cunts in high school and college.

Not anymore. because even if I don't have my aids on, I can feel their voice on my skin, determine where they are. And read their lips with 100% accuracy. I can give the loudness of my environment and put forth a volume in my voice to make myself clear and understood.
