The day of my exam I reported to the local clinic and was ushered, along with 100 or so other boys of my age into a room where a middle aged matron announced that we were to remove all our clothes, watches ,jewelry, etc and place them in lockers. After we had stripped we all stood around waiting for our exam. During this period people would come in and out of the room, some were medical personnel but most were not. Our names were called in groups of about 10 and we reported to a woman clerk who couldn’t have been more than 18 or 19. While we were standing there in the nude she asked each our name and DOB and gave each of us a folder to carry with us throughout the exam. The exam process was more like an assembly line, you went from one clinician to the next with each one only examining part of you. The examiners were either middle aged matrons or young women. When it was time for our genital exam the woman who did this was about 20 and she took about 30 seconds to check for hernia, feel the testicles and penis and place two fingers in your crotch while she put upward pressure on it.The final part was of course the rectal exam and for that they had two women who had a supply of gloves next to them, we would walk up to an exam table and bend over it while she very quickly inserted a finger in the rectum, pull it out, discard the glove and move on to the next.Urine would be collected in an old fashioned enamel hand held urinal that we would hand to a clerk who pour some of the urine into a small glass with a paper slip with our name under it… I almost forgot, for our chest xray we had to walk into to hallway, still naked, and walk 100 ft or so to the facilities with women, girls, boys, children all around us and waited in the corridor till our turn.
