Military I’ve recently been exploring a career in the military. I have a mild speech block. I’m worried I won’t be able to repeat the commands they need me to do. Has anyone experienced the military with a speech block? I go most the day without stuttering because I can usually shuffle the words around… but I can see how it can become a problem if they need me to a say a exact certain command in the heat of the moment, and here I am… not being able to spit it out. Let me know anything or words of encouragement because this is worrying me.
