APFT Test w/Recruiter
Rangers, Completed my pt test today with my recruiter. I scored 285 overall, which was a disappointment. I am 32 years old, so here were my numbers: I maxed out the pushups with 83. Then totally hit a wall with my sit-ups, only getting 66, for a score of 89. That will bother me for a while. I ran a ...

Yes Ranger/Admin, I did read the entire post you linked. I have read as much about color blindness on this site, without finding information about exceptions. Thank you for providing the link, but the specifics I am looking for are exceptions, and how to get around the color blindness issue, not wha...

shipping out as a 84, color blind, wanting Rangers
