Does the military have access to your medical records? Some people say they do, some don't. I took medication for depression from age 17-19 and I'm 21 now and I know I am better and it is behind me. I really don't even think I needed them, the doctor almost pushed them on me. If they don't have access to my records I will just lie, no problem becuase if I say I did then that would probably DQ me.
Also after Officer Development School do I go to more training like A school? If you could tell me what ODS is like that would be appreciated. Is it really "fork and knife" school anymore?
When I arrive on base will I live on base in officer barracks or will I live in my own house/ apartment on base or will I most likely live off base with living allowance?
When you get to base and began working do they usually spend a day or two to show you how the hospital works and help you get the swing of things?
I would love personal experiences and advice please and thank you!
