    I’m fine. When it was a kid I was in a car crash and broke my wrist, and it never healed right so I actually couldn’t hold a gun as I can’t get my hand to go into the correct position.

    I could probably hold it with my left had but I’m not going to bring that up.

      There are many roles in the military that don’t require a gun. The military also has more sophisticated standards for assessing a person fitness to serve than they did in WW2. There are infantry members missing legs now.
