Air Force Junior ROTC

Physical Training, AKA “PT”

 

 

The Air Force has recently increased the emphasis of PT in the Junior ROTC curriculum.  The objective is to improve the wellness of all cadets and help them develop healthy exercising habits for life.

 

We do PT every Friday unless otherwise announced.  Each cadet is issued a set of PT uniforms.  One set is a T-shirt and shorts combination and the second set is a sweatshirt and sweatpants combination.  Cadets must have their PT clothes and athletic shoes with them at the beginning of class and they will be allowed to change clothes in the ROTC storage rooms.

 

PT is a graded activity and cadets must wear their uniforms to participate.  Cadets who do not dress out will receive a grade of zero for PT that day and will not be allowed to participate.  Instead, they will be given an academic assignment in class that will be graded.
