While I'm not positive on the time limit for the swim, I know for a fact that I can do the rest with ease. It's easier than the Army PT test. Sadly I know what these guys usually do on a daily basis and my interest goes downhill fast. Couple this with EOD training and you have my interest again. Alas, I did my 8 years. I'm working on staying stateside for more than 11 months.

Don't think the knee will take the run, and after the last recovery period, not really in the mood to find out.

We had to re-do the swim quals and go through the dunker every couple of years - I never could figure out why anyone would join the Navy and not think swimming might be required, but yet we always had several near-drownings everytime I went through.... unreal.
No aquarium, no tank in a marine land, however spacious it may be, can begin to duplicate the conditions of the sea. And no dolphin who inhabits one of those aquariums or one of those marine lands can be considered normal.
