Question;
 A. If you are a SPC (p) and fail 6 or more PT tests are you able to get promoted anyway?
 B.  After you become an NCO you fail two record PT tests what should happen?

SPC(P) Mize, if a Soldier is a SPC(P) and fails a PT test then the Soldier should be Flagged and therefore ineligible for promotion. The Soldier should also be removed from the Promotion list and lose his/her promotable status. As far as being a NCO and failing two record PT tests that is grounds for separation from the Army.

Thank you for the information someone asked me that question, because in her unit it happened and she was confused about what the standard was.

Failing an APFT = flagged. Flagged = no favorable action. Promotion = favorable action.

Think the regulation is pretty clear on both of these.  Failed APFT = flagged.  Flagged = no favorable action.
