Cedric strolled down the corridor toward Main Sickbay for his boarding physical. Many people he knew complained about the physical, but he never understood why. It only took a few minutes. Generally speaking, the physical revealed nothing. Maybe that is why people hate doing them. The fact that they don’t seem to matter. Nevertheless, the physicals were protocol, and they mattered to Medical so you might as well not fight them on it. Besides, if you didn’t go you might just find yourself on the other side of a Doctor’s write up.

The double doors to Sickbay opened and Cedric entered the room. Someone instantly greeted him. “Hi, I’m Ensign Valencia. I am here for my boarding physical,” he smiled.
