Are there jobs in any branches of the U.S. military that a deaf person could do?

I have a cochlear implant, and I really admire the courage of the people that join the military. I was wondering if there was anything I could do in order to be in the military myself? Like maybe learn a lot of different foreign languages or be a military doctor or something? The reason why I ask is because I know my hearing loss can be a liability at times but I make the best of it.
Maybe I could join the Marine Band? (I play the trumpet)
If you are a soldier or a veteran of some kind reading this, I would also like to say thanks for doing what you do for our country.
you are very welcome, impaler19120
and Jellybelly, have you not noticed that I mentioned that I have a cochlear implant? I am able to play well on my trumpet.
Thank you everyone for taking the time to answer. I know that there's a hearing test, but I was just wondering (It was my dream to join the military.)
Hey will, thanks for the link. I'll be sure to check it out. I probably wouldn't be able to join fo a while (I'm a freshman), but I'm definitely keeping air force in mind.
 
I admire your enthusiasm with our military. Talk to a recruiter or if u are completely deaf have some one.. u know what don't worrie go to this website..

www.airforce.com

then brows the cite look for something that says talk to a recruiter or something along those lines I ha vent really been on that cite in a while, but go there before seeing a recruiter.. they are active recruiters that work online and they will be able to answer ur question better than any of us here.. veteran or not.. I gave u the air force because the Marine Corp, Navy, and army kinda just want "perfect people" so I don't think they will help, the air force is more for "brainy people" so I think that if theres any were that will recruit u it would be them.
