Hi, im due to go to catterick soon,just wondering will i be doing another hearing test and eyetest, drop and cough tests again? what involves in the medical exactly?
thanks

I think you have a full medical with a doctor again, so yes to the cough and drop, again though depends on which doctor you get, some of them like to grab your balls, some just like to feel your groin.
i dont think you have the hearing or eyesight tests again though
someone will be able to confirm for definate though im sure

When you get there as silas has said it's almost the same medical as ADSC but a more in-depth one, as for the C&D test i heard they don't need to do it twice.

Did'nt think they still did this in the military (the c&d) lol, what is it supposed to do/be exactly? and did you guys get a bloke or a bird for yours? would'nt like the thought of an old geezer groping my knacks lol.

ADSC I got an 'ok' looking woman lol, I'm not 100% sure of what it does but it shows you're bits work right and the muscles work.. not 100% sure

The C&D test I belive is also to check for hernias, I also belive many years ago that they use to check your bum hole for piles, and I think they still fo this for the marines. I stand to be corrected more than likely lol

one of the lads on my recruit training claimed the doctor was a proper sexy minx and he ended up getting a stiffy as she had a grope! in reality she was a hag, a classic case of more bromide in his tea i thought!

You get pretty much the same as in selection. Eye's ears, height, weight. Get some injections and they take blood. Whole day of standing around really! You also get looked over by the dentist too.

Don't get yours balls felt again though!

Thank god they dont do the balls again. at ADSC i had a women who looks about 70 grope me and she had a last name i cnt even say! not good lads not good lol!
