I considered joining the Marines this Monday, walked into the recruiters office Tuesday, took the ASVAB Wednesday, got my College transcripts today, and they want to send my down south to some physical exam thing on Sunday. There, apparently, I'll swear in, and sign the contract. A LOT is on my mind lately, and Ive been getting damn near zero sleep. But at the moment I have only one question on my mind. During this physical exam (sorry if I dont know the correct name or abrivation), do they completely inspect each individual? I assumed as much, to check for tattoos and what-not, but Im wanting to be sure.

Yeah, so whatever you have is going to be looked at

Yes, it is the most complete physical you'll ever receive. The doctors there will inspect inch of your body so disclose any issues you have up front because if they catch you lying to them, you're going to be in a world of sh!t.

You will even feel a "little discomfort", "preasure" at one point of it also. :D
