I can't remember if there was a separate APFT policy, but as I recall, in Group we had three sets of standards for things like road marches: one for 18-series personnel in command and team slots, one for 18-series in other slots (18Es in the SIGDET, for example), and one for support personnel. Something like 10/8/6 miles in two hours, I think.
That was not an army PT standard. That was an internal SF training requirement. Some may remember SF Stakes rebranded as Validation, and I have no idea what is the new name.....
