In peace time the military refuses to take people with eczema because it would require a potential skin screen that could cause undo responsibility for the military to supply.

I know from personal experience that the military will deny you for having eczema. I took all of the tests and physicals to get into the OCS for the Marines when I was in college, and it was the fact I had been treated for eczema that prevented my approval. I was a three sport letter winner and was more than able to function without medications. But for a moment in time in my sophomore year I had to be given a prescription for an ointment and that was all she wrote. They could not guarantee that I could be provided with that ointment if my condition came back again, so too bad, so sad.
But now, apparently some believe that you can join the military with a condition that requires daily treatments and even possible operations. We can no longer tell anyone that they are a burden. We must be all inclusive according to some. But the USSC (at least for now) sided with the ban. No doubt they will also need to make a decision, depending. If an appeals court approves of the ban, it may be that the USSC decides not to review it. Either way, it certainly looks like this ban will go through and that is a good thing for our military.

One in particular, who I was extremely close with when we were kids, (parents were best friends and all so we basically grew up together) turned out to be a stereotypical far, far, leftist. We were talking about the way of the world and I remember telling her - "The mental illnesses we treated in the 70's are the same ones we celebrate and revere today." She took offense to that and we disagreed to disagree. When I see her this summer I'll ask…
