Ping for New Army PT Test Results. Several good comments, beginning with “Night Hides Not”’s. I recall 3 changes of PT tests during my 20 years, 1973-1993. There was another “tanker’s PT test” that we took with the 3d Armd Div when I was the S-2 for 3d Sqdn, 12th Cav (83-85), that included carrying/rolling a road wheel, fireman’s carry of another crew member, pulling a steel cable, lift & carry of a 105mm training round.

I have been assured by a friend with a female in the Army that the standards have been adapted for females. I checked with a different expert, and it appears to be true.

The top 60% or so of each sex is considered ok....something like that if I understood correctly. Maybe it’s 40%.
