<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>The standard is the same for active duty, reserves, and national guard. When and if you do not make your target weight then they will tape your neck and abdomen. Age will depend on what body fat % you are allowed to have.1LT Private RallyPoint MemberMon, 04 Nov 2019 02:57:35 -05002019-11-04T02:57:35-05:00Response by MAJ Private RallyPoint Member made Nov 4 at 2019 9:15 AM

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>You would be taped if over the HT/WT standards. Max is 24% unless you’re in the 40 and over crowd.MAJ Private RallyPoint MemberMon, 04 Nov 2019 09:15:38 -05002019-11-04T09:15:38-05:00Response by SFC Private RallyPoint Member made Nov 4 at 2019 10:26 AM

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>The tape test IS the height/weight standard.SFC Private RallyPoint MemberMon, 04 Nov 2019 10:26:27 -05002019-11-04T10:26:27-05:00Response by CPL Gary Pifer made Nov 4 at 2019 12:32 PM
