Looking for any fed/state/local agencies that accept recruits with monocular vision
Ok, I know this is a very long shot but after much research and not finding anything encouraging I figured Id ask here:
Im looking for any federal, state or local le agencies that would accept a recruit who has lost an eye (the left)?
Thanks for any replies in advance.

For federal LEO positions, loss of an eye would disqualify you from meeting entry level standards. I am personally aware of some 1811's that have lost an eye as a direct result of LE duties and have been retained by their agencies. Their scope of duties have been somewhat modified, but they are allowed to remain on board. I believe that's the right thing to do.
There are many other support function in federal LE that can be very rewarding. DEA has 1810 positions, investigating/regulating the pharmacy industry. Also, many agencies have Intelligence Analyst positions (132) that work closely with enforcement groups and really do some great work. I'd recommend you take a look at these type of positions.

Both FBI and DHS have 132 positions as well. Cast a broad net!

Ah grand, I'll have a look at those series too, thanks

So that seems like the federal levels are well covered, are there any similar positions in the state/county levels?
