That's it?!?!?!?
That would have been a weak enlisted person in my tank company back in the day.
Yes, that is the pre-requisite PT, then there is a list of infantry tasks including a 12 mile ruck march in sub 3 hours with a fairly moderate kit load, all sorts of weapons tasks, first aid and such which must be certified by the owning unit. Then of course the first days at Benning include a nonstop make you die or quit physical assessment ( Darby Queen ring a bell?) A lot of attrition there, then about a 60% success rate for a non-recycle graduate (1st time go), about 50% of recycles make it subsequent classes- they jump in where they broke off for med or admin issues. Only one retest for a task failure, no option for integrity violations ( oh no, congress couldn’t attend!).
I broke a femur in the desert phase, in ‘85, had the option to return, never did- never healed quite right nor did I have the motivation to do that again!

That is just to get in. If you barely make those, you’ll wash.
