The pussification and civilianization of the US Army picks up pace.

Thanks to Nico for this depressing link.

The U.S. Army wants to create specific physicalfitness tests aimed at ensuring that soldiers can meet the physical challenges of their jobs in wartime.
Army Chief of Staff Gen. Raymond Odierno is waiting on a recommendation that would create PFTs that are designed around the physical requirements of military occupational specialties such as infantry, cavalry, armor and others.
"I expect that the in the next several months Training and Doctrine Command will come forward with a recommendation," Odierno said during a Jan. 6 virtual Town Hall meeting with soldiers across the Army.
"This is maybe how I see it. I think there might still be a general PT test similar to [the current] pushups, sit-ups, two-mile run. But then there will be a functional test per by MOS that really focuses on what strengths should need to be in a certain MOS."
Odierno said he saw a recommendation for a new PFT when he first became chief, but it was "inadequate."


So he directed training officials to begin looking at qualifications for every MOS. The data collected from the effort will "help us to understand physiologically when we go to war, what are the requirements that we have to have for somebody to be able to do their job under stressful conditions.
This is such bullshit.

This is all about getting women into combat in such a way as to fool the idiots in society that standards are being maintained.  Functional tests for each MOS?  Really?  Seriously?

The US Army is about to become a bitch force that isn't worth deploying.

Hopefully the USMC will stay away from this foolishness.  If it doesn't then you can expect a gender-normalized force to go into combat and get raped (literally) by the enemy. 

With these new PT standards is this the future of Army support units?
