Sorry, Marines: Getting totally drunk may not actually help you max out your PFT scores

I tried it, it doesn't improve your score. As a young PFC. Had been out all night drinking knowing full well there was a PFT in the AM. I wasn't drunk but suffering mightily.

Did okay on the pull ups. Sit ups (back and forth motion quickly) were not helpful. Halfway through the 3 miles, projectile vomiting. I finished, with the worst 3 mile run of any PFT I ever took. I made it in under the wire for time by a little. I learned a hard lesson the way most hard lessons are learned, through experience.

One of our regular drunks, err Marines used to run to the half-way point and have a cigarette with the SgtMaj before running to the finish, he would still finish the pft with a 300. Some jarheads have it and some don't!
