P - Passed both Physical Readiness Test (PRT) and Body Composition Assessment (BCA)

F - Overall PFA failure (failed BCA or PRT)

M - Medically waived from entire PFA (BCA and PRT)

W - Passed BCA but medically waived from one or more PRT events

B - Passed the BCA but was authorized non-participation in the PRT for other than medical waiver reasons (see code N for non-participation reasons). A comment will be made in the Comments on Performance block (Block 43 for E1-E6 Evaluations, Block 41 for Fitness Reports, Block 41 for E7-E9 Chief Evaluations) with reason for non-participation.

N - No PFA conducted during the reporting period.

Note: BCAs shall be accomplished on all members even if onboard less than 10 weeks or unable to participate in PRT due to DEP/OP. DEP/OP for BCA must be approved by the Immediate Superior In Command (ISIC).



In Block 20, enter the one-letter code without a space or slash for each official PFA administered during the reporting period. If the member completed more than one PFA cycle during the reporting period, enter a one-letter code for each cycle.

PF - Indicates the member participated in two PFA cycles during the reporting period and that the member passed the first and failed the second

FPM - Indicates the member participated in three PFAs during the reporting period and that the member failed the first, passed the second and had a medical waiver for the third

NP - Indicates there were two PFAs during the reporting period and that the member was not required to participate in the first PFA and passed the second PFA

N - Indicates no PFA occurred during the reporting period



In Block 29, enter the PFA cycle information used to determine the codes. For example, if the results reported are the results of 2020 cycle 2 and 2021 cycle 1, then enter PFA: 20-2/21-1.
