As far as I am aware, engagement with the regular force or reserve force is not contraindicated by reason of an Aspie diagnosis alone.
However, this would lead to a secondary medical examination for occupational fitness, and depending upon the results of that assessment, a candidate might be determined to be unfit for service.
If that's the case, then I should have no issues since I am very high functioning to the point where I can drive, live independently, and graduate from college and get a good letter of recommendation from my practicum lawyer and an above average practicum assessment. I used a computer program which we were not trained to use in college, but I used my related skills to adapt and use it just as proficiently as if I did learn it. I did a practice CFAT test on the website and did really well on that. I thrive on solving problems and my college instructors say that although some of my ways are unconventional, I still get it done.
