There is a popular belief that Napoleon Bonaparte was missing a finger, particularly his index finger, but this is largely a myth. Historical accounts indicate that he had a number of ailments and injuries, but there is no definitive evidence to confirm that he lost a finger. Some portraits and depictions show him with his hand in his jacket, which may have contributed to this misconception. Ultimately, the claim about him missing a finger is not substantiated by reliable historical records.

Is it normal to be missing a knuckle on your ring finger?

Well . . . I'm missing a knuckle on my ring finger, it functions normally. My ring finger is shorter than my index finger and it's shorter Than the ring finger on my right hand. If you have the same prob I can tell you why. Your finger is shorter because you have a knuckle, it's just pushed back into your hand. Look real close. Plus my finger is just a little fatter than the other finger.

Are you automatically disqualified for acceptance of any branch of the military having missing a finger?

No, though you will have to apply for, and be granted, a Medical Waiver by the US Military's Medical Corps. Basically, this waiver states that your missing digit(s) do not significantly hamper your ability to serve effectively. You would be unlikely to be granted a waiver if you are missing a thumb or index finger of either hand, or missing more than one finger on a hand.
