This might be a dumb question but isn't a millitary person always in charge of the JCS? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's just their turn in the rotation. Unless the top candidate in the service next up really fucks up, the services take turn posting a CJCS. As far as shoot first, ask questions later, that's a misconception. The branch that holds the CJCS really won't change much in terms of the doctrine of how the others train their people.

Yeah, but think about what would happen to the Air Force if their PT test was changed to a full on PFT?

It already has been changed to a full PFT. No more bike test. 1.5m run, pushups, situps, abdominal measurements. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Which is why the Army couldn't find enough people that could pass the bike test that the AF had been using for years, right? Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim.

The post has never been held by a Marine before. And - congrats on the full PFT thing - you've worked your way up to the standards for women in the Marines.
