The U.S. Navy has announced revisions to the Physical Readiness Program separation policy, directing commands to discontinue processing Sailors for separation as a result of Physical Fitness Assessment (PFA) failures. Effective immediately: (1) all commands will discontinue processing members for separation as a result of PFA failures; and (2) separation orders resulting from PFA failures prior to SEAOS with approved dates after March 31, 2018 are cancelled. Officers who fail one PFA will not be promoted. Effective Jan. 1, 2018, all PFA failures will be reset to zero. For more information, see this Military.com article.
