Now it is time for the physical, and I must admit I am a little worried. Has anyone been through it before? How hard are they going to look? If I look and feel fit and have good eyesight and hearing, is that going to be ok? Or are they going to break my DNA down into its component parts and search for any slight abnormalities?
I'm just wondering if anyone has done this before and what sort of things they might be looking out for.

MEPS can be a real PITA. If you have disclosed injuries and/or surgeries on the medical forms you have already filled out, be sure to bring any supporting documentation with you (MRIs, physician reports, Xrays, etc).
It can be a long day if you've had surgeries or broken bones in the past. If you haven't, well it will still be a long day.
