This research effort supports a milestone under Army Technology Objective (ATO) S Enhanced Physical Training with Reduced Injury: Provide a method to assess levels of physiological strain and develop guidance for use in predicting increased susceptibility to injury during training programs. For many years there has been discussion concerning the ability of Soldiers to perform the physically demanding tasks of their military occupational specialties (MOS) (I). Anecdotally commanders and senior NCOs report that some Soldiers are not capable of performing the physically demanding tasks of their jobs. In addition to anecdotal information physiological and survey data exist that support the potential for a mismatch between a Soldier's physical capacity and the physical job demands. The actual percentage of Soldiers capable of performing the physically demanding tasks of their assigned job has not been well quantified for any MOS (2) This report will address the issue of strength and job performance In a group of 63B Light-Wheel Vehicle Mechanics.
