In every other FM doctrine standardizes how the Army does business, but its EXPECTED that we will adapt and modify it to complete the mission. PRT on the other hand is lockstep, we will do prep drills in this exact manner and speed being an exampleWhy is FM 7-22 followed in such a lockstep manner when it is an FM??2016-03-15T23:23:42-04:00CPT Private RallyPoint Member1382717<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Field Manual 7-22 is just that, a field manual, that spells out Army doctrine for its PT program.

There are people incorrectly doing PRT every installation I go to. The reason so much "empahsis" is applied to it, is so it meets the actual intent of the exercises. It isn't going to work if you are not doing it correctly. That is why SGM's are so crazy about it.Response by CSM Carl Cunningham made Mar 15 at 2016 11:31 PM2016-03-15T23:31:21-04:002016-03-15T23:31:21-04:00TSgt Floyd Wilson2777707<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Only thing is the adaption is done when it doesn't suit some commanders agenda.Response by TSgt Floyd Wilson made Jul 28 at 2017 5:42 PM2017-07-28T17:42:22-04:002017-07-28T17:42:22-04:002016-03-15T23:23:42-04:00
