Well i consider myself very fit too, but i know i am going to be able to handle the phys side of things. I think if they do let you transfer, you may have to successfully complete the PRMC. Which is fair enough.

I don't think its a problem but im pretty show they cant go back in the navy if they want to leave. You dont have to have an interview or PJFT or any of that crap tho.
