Well - I’ll be the first to say she owes the Navy (we taxpayers) a refund....
She was unable to fulfill her end of the agreement..
I also suspect her “exercise induced asthma” was a precondition she couldn’t help but be aware of....
She should shut up and pay up...
We taxpayers are tapped out by being the patsy for EVERYONE....
“I also suspect her “exercise induced asthma” was a precondition she couldn’t help but be aware of....”
Not necessarily. Mine showed up in my late 30’s. I was previously a competitive surfer, soccer player, pilot rescue swimmer, etc. ad nauseum. Ran everyday. When the exercise induced asthma showed up it was large and in charge. Not all asthma onset is during childhood.
I don't know if I agree here... I had a college roommate who tried to join the marines after he realized that college just wasn't for him. He played lacrosse as a mid-fielder all through grade school, high school, and college, but he failed his marines physical and couldn't join because they diagnosed him with "exercise induced asthma." And he was a mid-fielder!

If it were a pre-existing condition, why wouldn't it have shown up either in the pre-enlistment physical, or during the two years she'd already been in the NROTC? I'm assuming that they do physical training at some point during those college years.
And why couldn't she have been trained by the Navy for a less strenuous position? Not everyone in the Navy has a position that is physically demanding.
BS, not all asthma starts in childhood, considering she had 2+ years into ROTC sounds to me like she developed asthma long after she was recruited.
