I asked my recruiter the same thing. I Separated my shoulder 1 1/2 years ago. What I was told is that as long as your medical discharge papers do not show any restrictions on activity there's no problem.

The main people you should be talking to about this is the Doctors at MEPS they are the ones that can make you or break you. If necessary talk to them one on one explain to them that it is of no hindrance to you and maybe even show them. If you do all of this and they still disqualify you then there is a good reason for them not letting you join.
