Previously served, about to go back in. OCPs frighten me.
I'm color blind. Badly. So bad I got a zero on the test at MEPS then failed the fallback one too.
When I was first in years ago it was easy. Giant enlisted ranks on the sleeves meant a safe distance to differentiate between officer and enlisted. Now everyone's rank is tiny, located at their abdomen, and for me at least, impossible to make out. I have the same issue even seeing if there's one on the cap, as that was something else easy to look for back in the ABU days.
Now the ranks are tiny, are in the same place, and for my broken eyes blend in with the rest of the camo.
Anyone have a tip or trick? I've not been reamed, just awkward exchanges, though I know my look shall soon run out.
