We'll ignore, for the moment, the claims to vision improvement, and
whether or not they were done with cycloplegia....

No Neil, I was not able to. I can only access Army databases on a military level. However "military.com" website has a buddy finder database search, I wonder if he ever registered there.

Note the part where he says USAF vision requirement was 20/20 in 1996. I have had pilots told me that in 1991 they entered service with worse vision. Neil, he never answered any question about his current Rx, if he slanders his service ODs like he does to their civilian counterparts, or he listens to their advice, or USAF is informed about his business. He is also blinded with the falsehood that all ODs out there has a secret agenda to slap glasses on your face and make money. I CAN NOT believe that myself. Especially meeting people such as DrG, Bill Stacy, etc.
