(If you currently are Light Duty, LIMDU or on an MedBoard you still need to complete the medical waiver. If your waiver is not turned in by the stated deadline there will be no exceptions made for members, they are very adamant and strict about this for this cycle. Attached are all needed forms for the waiver process.)

NOTES:

• Please be aware that planks will be accounted for this cycle.

• It is your responsibility to know what is a passing failing score for the PRT, not the ACFLs. 

• If you fail your PRT, you will have 24 hours to route a Bad Day chit.  If it is approved, you must complete another PRT within 7 days from your original date. You cannot switch your cardio option at this time.  If you fail again, you fail your PFA and will be placed in FEP.
