Hi all,
I'm not sure if this is sort of solicitation is considered in poor taste, but if so -- and the Mods need to delete, it won't hurt my feelings and I fully understand. Anyway, my wife entered me into a local (Seattle area) contest where 2 winners, one military one emergency responder wins LASIK or PRK surgery based on likes, shares etc. These are under the mini-bios for each of us who are the four finalists, right now I'm in the running four; Mark Miranda, Army journalist (think Scoop, that's what I do). If any of you are willing to take the time to check it out to vote for me or any of the other 3 finalists just as deserving check out the clinics facebook page: Bellevue LASIK and Cornea http://www.facebook.com/BellevueLASIK and share or like under an entry you think is deserving. Thanks for your time! Wylde Weezle / Sergeant Mark Miranda Fort Lewis, Washington |

Doesn't the Army offer free LASIK to it's servicemen? I'm pretty sure the Marine Corps does, and I was under the impression all the armed services did.

It used to be an almost automatic thing, but defense budget cuts being what they are...you see Soldiers not moving around as much from duty station to duty station, healthcare provider is going to change in a few months, re-enlistment bonuses dwindling etc. I'm not considered priority since I've come back from a deployment so I've got a shot here - I'm going for it

I get what you're saying, and completely understand, but I guess my opinion is you have a better chance of getting it free from the Army, where as your competitor(s) this my be there only chance, otherwise they'd either have to do without or pay (which they may not be able to afford).
At any rate, good luck. I hope it works out for you. |
