Gen. Paul E. Funk II, commanding general, U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Command, hosted senior leaders from across TRADOC for a two-day forum at Fort Eustis, Va., Aug. 6-7, 2019. The event provided the opportunity for the leaders to gather and discuss Funk's vision as commander of the Army's center for recruiting, training and educating Soldiers. To kick-off events both morning, master fitness trainers from U.S. Army Center for Initial Military Training led the leaders and their spouses through a demonstration of the new Army Combat Fitness Test, and how Soldiers can prepare until equipment arrives at their units. Field testing of the ACFT will close in Sept. 2019. The new test is anticipated to be the new physical fitness test for record in Oct. 2020.
