i couple years ago i got into a fight and ended up breaking the fourth metacarpal in my hand. i had surgery on it and i now have a permanent metal plate in my hand. i have 100% range of motion back in it. is this going to give me problems with getting into the army? i would like to do infantry i think and i would like to know ahead of time what to expect. thanks,
Matt

I think you'll need a doctor's certificate certifying that your injury causes no issues - i.e. no pain, full range of movement, etc. If it's anything like the Aussie military they might send you to a specialist too for confirmation.

thanks for the response. its kind of what i expected to hear, i am just hoping i am not automatically ruled out because of it. anyone else have some input?

No, you shouldn't be automatically ruled out because of your past injury. You'd only be automatically ruled out if you have a condition which cannot completely resolve after a year - i.e. chronic conditions.
