Profiles are a definate no go. RAP week has changed slightly since this was originally posted.
PT Test: instead of the 2 mile run, you do your 5 mile run with the 40min time standard individually as part of the test, then come back and do your pull-ups as normal.

Combatives: Not completely sure, but I think this has been dropped

FM: is not out to Darby anymore, but an individual 12 Miler to a 3 hr time standard

If anyone has any questions, feel free to PM me, I'm working up at 5th RTB now. I agree that completing the school is largely mental, but being physically fit will allow you to keep your mind sharp as the course goes on.

2Manchu -
I have a winter class date. Are Oakley Temperate weather boots authorized? If not, what is your personal preference in cold weather boots? Also, when in RNGR School, are students allowed to wear either their Hot Weather or Temperate Weather boots based on personal preference during the winter class dates? I only ask because I get severe blisters from most boots, and Oakleys are the only ones that don't tear my feet up.

Thanks for your help,
Brent

Fill out your profile future stud.

packing list can be found here, look on the left side for the link it has picture examples of authorized and unauthorized boots:
https://www.benning.army.mil/rtb/rtbmain.asp

BLUF: if it ain't on there, don't bring it. What it says for cold weather books is "military or RFI Issue 200 gram.

If you are unsure, bring an alternate pair that you know is allowed, and toughen your feet up, you won't be able to wear one pair of boots the whole time.
