That exam includes a 3-mile run, push-ups or pull-ups, and an abdominal plank.
I mean, that’s not much of a physical exam. Pretty much any person who isn’t physically limited in some way could achieve this level of fitness in a short time. I knew these fascists didn’t think much of women but I didn’t realize they thought they were totally physically incompetent. You really thought that women couldn’t jog for three miles? Or do a plank? haha

And out of the other armed forces, that’s the most difficult set of minimums. When I was enlisted, the Marine Corps was the only branch that required more than a 2-mile run. Some even less than that.
