Yes. I think by that time they eliminated break-area procedures, ‘running to Alabama’, the initial windsprint two miles or until 30% of the class dropped out and the flat out run up cardiac hill. It’s a shame but it was the only way to assure significant numbers of females would pass the course.

Oh, I did get the break area procedures routine, and the two miler, then the three miler. Don’t remember cardiac hill, though.

Now that I think about it I don’t remember any females on my stick. I think they were trained separately. Most of them were ROTC and Academies cadets/midshipmen (midshipwomen?!).
