I guess this is technically not a ME 3 question, since it relates to ALL Mass Effect games. But does anyone else think that it makes NO sense whatsoever that someone with such a debilitating disability would be accepted into the alliance? It's not like military physical requirements are likely to just go away over the next couple centuries.

He proved himself, and he's the best damned helmsman in the alliance navy

He's the best of the best? You're sitting in a chair most of the time anyway, are they expecting the pilot to go fighting?

Wait... this reminds me... how the hell did Joker get back in the alliance? Unlike Dr. Chakwas, he actually *did* join Cerberus.

He's a frigate pilot, and his condition affected him below the waist (they sort of forgot that later).

Debilitating disability?

He was mobile enough to rescue the ship from Collector invasion.

He's strong enough to fire a rifle.

He's the best pilot ever and can make the Kessel Run in under nine par secs.

What's the matter here?

Like Joker said in ME1... He's still the best pilot in the fleet. So no

To help with the Normandy refit. He was technically under arrest and was under guard escort the whole time.

"Why does the Alliance hire pilots with brittle bone disease?"

"So their marines can beat someone in hand to hand drills."

On top of this he even stated in the first game that he graduated at the top of his class in the academy.
Which just goes back to everyone's main point of him being the best damn pilot in the fleet.

If the ship gets boarded, then yes.

In today's military, everyone from cooks to mechanics receives basic combat training so they'd know what to do in a firefight.  Can't see that part changing just because they're in space.  And since Joker can't even fire a gun without breaking his ribs, that will automatically disqualify him from any military service, even if he just sits in a chair all day long.

Funny SW quote, but, just for the record (and im pretty sure you know what im going to say), parsecs are a unit of distance, not a unit of time. Just in case anyone didn't knew.

Leaving that issue settled.

My problem with Joker isn't that he has a disability, it's that he's chicken****.

In the actual military, all field operators at every level are expected to be in fighting condition. Even the cook at an operating base is capable of stripping a rifle and all that business.

But yknow, it's the future, etc etc.
