The applications that I filled out didn't ask if you have a military flight physical, but rather a 1st Class (or 2d class for the contract job) FAA physical. The differences between the two don't matter.

Worse, applications today are scored by a computer. If you don't have that box checked, it probably moves on to another candidate, or it scores you application lower.
Do everything you can to check all the boxes and answer all the questions.
