Why did you not report the metal plate at MEPS? Why are you on here instead of talking to your Drill Sergeant if this is a real post?

I would have caught holly hell if I&#39;d have walked around with a metal plate in my hand.

You don&#39;t start a Psych period. You report problem- they send you to sick call- Medics then send you higher if necessary. If you are telling the truth and are on a computer during BCT, then I&#39;m delusional, but I&#39;m thinking you are trolling without a full deck.

As soon as you report that you may or may not be having issues with said hand, the doc is going to check your records and not see it. You are going to to likely earn yourself an uncategorized discharge or other than honorable discharge for lying on your documents SSG Private RallyPoint Member Sun, 08 Mar 2020 21:31:33 -0400 2020-03-08T21:31:33-04:00 Response by SGT Robert Wager made Mar 9 at 2020 6:27 AM https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/can-i-get-epts-for-having-a-metal-plate-in-my-hand-also-what-are-some-ways-i-can-get-admitted-for-a-psych-eval?n=5643388&urlhash=5643388 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I’m assuming you are looking for a way out of the Army. Go to your Drill Sergeant and tell him you would like to speak to the 1SG using his open door policy. Tell him the exact story you posted here. You will be out in less than a week.

That way when you do tell them you can get court martialed and a dishonorable discharge...
