Deaf Man Wants to Join Army | Socyberty

Deaf Man Wants to Join Army | Socyberty



Kieth Nolan is deaf but he is doing everything he can to join the Army. He was accepted and joined the ROTC Officers Training Corp where he was an outstanding student, but to be commissioned into the Army, he had to pass a hearing test. He could advance no further and turned in his uniform. Still, he has his dreams of joining the Army and is encouraged with the event of the war wounded continuing to work behind the scenes, rather than being discharged due to disability. Rep. Henry A. Waxman is working on Nolan’s behalf.
