The number one modernization and product improvement program will continue to be the individual Marine. In fact, Marines who are not physically fit can be a detriment to the readiness and combat efficiency of their unit. Unfortunately, the Marine Corps is failing to provide its elite warfighters with a physical conditioning program that prepares them for the physical demands of combat. With a nominal investment in time, Marines could benefit from a program that assesses their unit's fitness in terms of their future operating environment, and that provides a progressive plan to ensure their units are capable of performing at the highest levels in combat. Such a program requires competent instructors. Consequently, the creation of a physical training instructor secondary military occupational specialty (MOS) will improve the Marine Corps' ability to prepare for and conduct war.
