[Can anyone give recent FC1/MFS Experience?]

You're going to fill out a new DD2807 and send it in a week or so before you arrive. Just stay congruent is my advice. I believe the folks at WP will have access your Tricare and MEPS (ime in the reserves they had some stuff but not everything since I'd commissioned into another branch so I'm really not sure) but they're only going to pull the applicable ones. My suggestion is obviously to not outright hide anything, but some things aren't necessary to share and to be honest, they don't want to deal with more paperwork for something minor if they don't have to. If they have found something they're interested in then they will ask you about it during your med background interview while you're there. But they're not going to grill you over it and nothing you said seems disqualifying.

Don't overthink it. They want you to succeed.

Awesome. Thanks! I just know how sensitive the AF is about asthma these days and didn't want to fall in that hole. I had the classic recruiter "don't say yes to anything", but had to tell him they would notice if my tonsils were gone.........

I figure the only thing they're going to be concerned at all about is the times I had bronchitis and docs thought it might have been asthma. But, before age 13 and no formal diagnosis (thank god). 

 

Anyways, thanks for the reply. Appreciate it.

Hey all, just trying to figure something out about what all I need to do before the MFS...conflicting info from a recruiter (seems to be the norm here). I filled out my DOD2807 when I went to MEPS and marked down a few things like getting tonsils removed, wisdom teeth, having contacts, etc. Do I fill out a new 2807 for the MFS? Or do they use the same one? And do the records that MEPS creates go to Wright Pat? Just trying to figure out if I need to get those records again (NBD since I was a dependent and Tricare's online records are great) or if MEPCOM even talks to the folks who do MFS. 

I had my recruiter tell me to not list anything but the above at MEPS, but since Wright Pat has Tricare records, am I screwed? Will they come after me for not disclosing the random sore throat I had at age 15 at MEPS? Or the time I had bronchitis and they put the words "chest tightness"? 

Flying is my dream, so I want to follow the right process and not screw it up. 

Thanks in advance.
