Let me tell you how military entrance process works.
1. Meet with a recruiter and talk about your interests. They take your name and follow up with you later to see if you are still interested.
2. Formal Office Visit with recruiter. Explanation of the armed services, possible job opportunities, required documentation, required physical fitness standards, and military benefits.
3. Quick office visit with recruiter to turn in documents. Schedule a Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) written test like the SATs but for the military.
4. Take ASVAB
5. MEPS Day One
The recruiter will pick you up at your home and take you to a hotel for the night. They will probably provide you dinner. They may also provide some form of entertainment. Then you will go to sleep. Waking up very early the next morning which is why they provide you a hotel room.
6. MEPS Day Two
4:30 AM Wake up
5:00 breakfast
5:15 load buses to MEPS center.
5:30 start impressing paper work
6:00 drug test
6:30 physical exam and medical history
The medical staff split people by gender. Women require pap and gynecological exams so they do their own thing and I cannot speek on their process.
In a big room with about 25 other males you will be told to disrobe to your underwear. Then doctors will look at your body for tattoos, injuries, disabilities, assess your posture, and your range of motion.
Next you go into private exam rooms for one on one exams with the doctor. They have you remove your underwear. I have had three military exams each time I have had to remove my underwear. Depending on the doctor the old school way is to have you bend over and pull your cheeks apart so they can look for hemorrhoids and sexual transmitted diseases. Pulling your own cheeks apart is old school. Most doctors have you bend over something or lay on you side and pull your cheeks apart themselves.
Either way yes your doctor will be looking at your rectal anus area. They check every detail.
12:00pm lunch break
12:30 dental
3:30 mental health evaluation
4:30 results, job selection, basic training entry date selected, paper work signed. Assuming there are no outstanding issues.

Then you go to the hotel. Wake up early and catch a bus, plain, or drive to your nearest basic training company.
