A profile is normally a medical condition (temporary or permanent) that precludes a Soldier from taking a standard physical fitness test. An example might be a back problem that precludes doing sit ups or push ups. Alternate events are provided for the ones a Soldier can’t do, such as swimming or biking instead of running, pull-ups instead of push ups, etc.

Almost all Army schools require students to pass a physical fitness test on arrival in order to participate.

The link you sent is simply asking Soldiers to provide proof of a medical condition prior to attending if they can’t take the standard fitness test.

Thanks.

For the record, I posted relevant info from a webz search on “297 + soldiers”.

That, taken from a Q-drop, made a bell ring in my head.
