Hepatitis C & the Army?

Do not lie. By the way, there is no hepatitis C vaccine, which you probably know already but some of the other respondents do not. Go for the waiver- if you are healthy now, I would think there would be a decent chance of getting in. The medical standards are very strict on paper but lots of people get waivers for various conditions. I got 2 when I reentered the Army in my 40's. The worse that can happen is they can say no, or depending on how recent the illness was, make you wait a certain period of time to make sure it stays in remission. If you are untruthful (not that I believe that was your intention), it could be very bad for you if they find out later. Besides, integrity is one of the Army values!
