allow diabetics to join the military, by providing the necessary resources for their disability.

There are plenty of jobs in the military that can be performed at a high level by diabetics and anyone with a similar disability. Diabetics have proven through the many task they excel at in the United States and abroad that they can perform at the same or at a higher level than anyone without this disability. The opportunity of serving our great country shouldn't be stripped from us because we have a "disability". Diabetes is a metabolic disorder in which the body fails to process glucose properly. Diabetes can be caused either by a lack of sufficient insulin production or an improper response to insulin in cells. It is easily treated with diet, exercise, and insulin or a combination of any of the above. Diabetics should not be discriminated against because of this disease.
