So the actual test descriptions are now available.

The picklejar test has been removed.

Major Changes Announced For Army's Expert Infantryman Badge Test

At the end of the day it is about protecting the badge and making it harder for future generations to earn an award that senior leaders already have.

That's great news those soldiers with the CIB need to respect the hardship taken for the EIB. I believe that requiring soldiers to only be in the Infantry MOS is strictly biased and unfair. This is a great change.
