CFT

#CC0000

A recruit of Lima Company, 3rd Recruit Training Battalion, low crawls for 10 yards during the Combat Fitness Test at Marine Corps Recruit Depot San Diego, Dec. 2. The final event of the CFT was the maneuver under fire. The course for this portion covers 75 yards and requires recruits to perform exercises such as sprints, ammunition can carries, fireman’s carry and throwing a simulated grenade at a marked target. Recruits were timed as they ran through the course and needed to finish it in less than 2 minutes and 14 seconds to receive 100 points. Today, all males recruited from west of the Mississippi are trained at MCRD San Diego. The depot is responsible for training more than 16,000 recruits annually. Lima Company is scheduled to graduate Feb. 5.
