Depends on your MOS. Usually if its a combat arms MOS then no.
You will be given glasses, as there are certain conditions and situations when contact lenses are not permitted. While you are in Basic Training and AIT, you will be required to wear glasses. Once you get to your first unit, during your normal day to day operations you will be allowed to wear your contacts, unless there is some training that specifically dictates that you may not.
yes
