Hello this is Poole Matt. My First question is about BCGs, When i was at meps back in June it seemed that i passed with flying colors. But after doing some research i discovered they dont tell you much Unless it DQs you. For example i just found out i have Flexible Flat feet. Since i was not told about this at MEPS i was wondering how can i tell if i will receive glasses, i have only been to the eye doctor once in my life when i was about 14 and he said i might need glasses just for driving when i turned 18...i'm 19 now. My Eyes seem fine. Do they tell you at MEPS if you get BCGs? will i just have to wait until Boot Camp to find out? My Secondary question is also about BSGs. If i do Receive Those BCGS is it mandatory that i wear them at all times? or just for classes/Rifle Range if needed?
Lastly Regarding my flat feet. I dont really recall many issues with my feet. I hiked many miles in the Adirondacks and the Grand Canyon. But after doing a Search on the Site i found a thread that a former poole wrote explaining that during Receiving they line every Recruit up. The doctor checks everyones feet for Fleet feet, If you do have flat feet they give you special insoles and special boots. Is this True or False?
Thank you for taking the time to read my Questions!
