Probably did the feet - arse - head version. I won't lie, I'm guilty of doing this myself but not too often.

I'm honestly surprised I'm not more fricked up physically.

All I remember about PFT's was in boot camp at PI, my inventory PFT was a middle of the road 2nd class score. My actual PFT before leaving PI was a perfect 300; sub 18:00 minute 3 mile run, 20 pull ups and 80 sit ups. When I took my next pft after being in the fleet for six months I could barely muster a mid score 2nd class again and it was all down hill from there until the cut score dropped so low for E5 that I got serious about getting a solid first class score again.

PLF only works if you have drift. Doesn't do a damn thing when you are going straight down.

In 20+ jumps, I NEVER had a landing in which I hit every point of contact on a PLF.

A fricking 2LT failing a PT test while at BOLC is disasterous. If you cant manage to do 45 pushups 55 sit ups and run a sub 15:45 2 mile, then you arent motivated enough. How in the hell do you expect to be seen as a leader if you cant do the basics? You need to have that mind set in everything you do.

Dont be that guy.

So I'm guessing different words were shown on your screen. Either that or you're retarded.

Go out night before, get hammered, go to pt hungover and smelling of booze, find out you have pt test, ace it while puking on run.

Repeat.

Tha frick? Just run your PFT. Certainly don't do anything differently than you've been doing training-wise.

I passed one drunk. Almost passed out but I made it.

Not that night.

MASTAC, Sicily DZ, was about 100 feet up, good "prepare to land" attitude (feet and knees together, eyes on the horizon, equipment lowered, slip pulled) and another jumper sky sharked twenty feet underneath me. Completely lost my concentration, legs spread apart, lost my slip. Next second, right foot (which leads to the hair line fracture in my hip), right buttocks, head (knocked clean out - got drug on the DZ for about twenty or thirty feet until our chief nurse ran me down and popped my canopy release).

The price you pay.

Nothing I never done anything special for the pt test. I'd rather flip tires swing sledgehammers and lift heavy. Pt test is stupid yet easy
