Army Chief: Pass New Combat Fitness Test or 'Hit the Road'

A new fitness test? Why not just have a hump in full gear for whatever distance seems appropriate, 6 miles, 10 whatever, just don't fall out. You can do that your cool. Make it practical, pull-ups and sit-ups don't really count.

Well that's going to double the unemployment rate. Some of the events seem a bit arbitrary (lift as much as you can as many times as you can).
