Hello,

The history indicates that there is a deviation in the elbow joint. When there is a deviation in the elbow joint beyond the normal values the chances of landing into fracture are more often. This could be one of the reasons the armed forces rejected your physical test application.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
