Walking Privileges means that you can leave post. However, there are other costs associated with failing the APFT. If your son does, when he is enrolled in CZCP or CPRP (Depending on the severity of his failure) he will earn a physical D for the semester, instead of an IM grade. It’s also going to reflect badly on him in general and put him behind in the race for the almighty class rank. This is in addition to the F from the APFT. What event is he having problems in?

The first day of the program involves a retest. If he passes, he will regain his privledges in time for Labor Day. If he does NOT pass the initial retest, he will remain on restriction and in the program. At the end of the program, he will take the APFT again. If he does not pass the second time around, they will probably separate him.

You mentioned he’s not concerned…He should be. Encourage him to buckle down. I’m sure his cadre is doing all they can to increase his pushup and situp scores.
