Does having had an ACL reconstruction affect ability to apply for any army roles, in particular infantry officer?

Hello,

This is not something that can really be answered on this platform. The reality is, that everyone is different. It would be up to one of our doctors to review your medical notes and make an assessment based on their observations. The only way you will be able to find out is to start an application and see what the medical team says.

Good luck!
