Re: ROTC PT??? Anyone?
Bah, ROTC PT is pussy bullshit. At least it was at my school. The problem with ROTC is that they are constantly in the build phase for all the fat REMF college boys that think they want to be in the Army. The goal was to get these people in just enough shape to pass the APFT so they can branch AG and Quartermaster. I don't even know what the passing score is.
Don't worry about rotc PT. It is just to familiarize you with the Army PT program (formations, etc). If you want to solder up and be a real asset to your service you'll have to pt on your own anyway, at least once a day.
My APFT at advanced camp: 98PU, 115SU, 10:45 2mi. I think it was a 350 something or some bullshit. The APFT is not a good indicator of physical fitness (or more importantly, intestinal fortitude). I've known a lot of dudes who could smoke a PT test and still be pussy bitches.
In short, PT is what you make of it. We weren't all always PT studs, we just decided to be at some point in our careers. Easy or hard, its up to you.
