I️ fractured my wrist about six years ago and had surgery that put a screw in my wrist, I️ have since never had any problems with it and it is fully healed. I️ gives me no pain at all as well. I️ was wondering what kind of information Dodmerb will ask about it, what they will do and what records should I️ prepare.
 
This is the applicable standard: "(2) Current retained hardware (including plates, pins, rods, wires, or screws) used for fixation that is symptomatic or may reasonably be expected to interfere with properly wearing military equipment or uniforms. Retained hardware is not disqualifying if fractures are healed, ligaments are stable, and there is no pain." The original "Op report" and the last day you saw the Doc, when he/she released you to full and unrestricted activities.:wiggle:
