I've heard different answers elsewhere so I figured this would be my best bet. I will need a permanent profile for the Leg Tuck (bilateral shoulder injuries). Is it possible to be exempt from just that event? Or can I do another event in place of? Will profiles even be allowed in the long run? I also welcome thoughts and opinions!

FRAGO 8 released the updated guidance on profiles.

You must be able to complete at least: the Deadlift, Sprint Drag Carry, the Standing Power Throw and an alternate aerobic event

Do you happen to have the FRAGO that you could email?

Last I was tracking about profiles was in the L section for no running profiles. I haven't seen any traffic about profiles in the U portion yet. This link is from November, but all it mentions is the cardio portion. I think they are still hashing out the profiles for the other PULHES categories.

last I heard they were allowing the bike and swim as an alternate event for the 2 mile run but not the 2.5 mile walk. That seems like they want to get rid of everyone with a no-run profile by making it more difficult.

I believe that the most current information is found in the ACFT Initial Operating Capability document.

The link is attached, your relevant section is 1-81, I'd post the excerpt, but TRADOC has the file on lockdown.
