That is one part of the medical I will never forget. As a healthy 16-year-old, to have a person grasp both, apply a little downward pressure and then be asked to cough.
I had the fastest cough you could imagine, he didn't get the time to count.

Jings man, I am glad I have never had that one. At least not that I remember, I might have blocked it out :0)
It happened from there on in most years when we had to go to medical to prove we were still alive. Fortunately, we had all male doctors,
Since retiring from the services that part has been forgotten, thank goodness.
I think it was to check for a hernia, but I could be very wrong.
It's a good way to check that you were alive that's for sure. I think that even a corpse might flinch right enough hehe
