Or put another way and for whatever reason, if you're not fit enough to operate, you're not fit enough to lead.
To go on my last tour I had to have an argument with the Med Centre who couldn't understand why I'd want to go when I was downgraded, unfit RAFFT (service injury)
Cue much discussion in PSF...
"You can't deploy"
"Why not?"
"You're unfit RAFFT"
"That's ok, my war role does not involve performing RAFFT"
"That's not the point"
"No, that is exactly the point..."
I deployed, we won the war and kept the free world safe, I returned and took redundancy - went to the Med Centre to clear...
"We just need you to sign this upgrade paperwork"
"Oh really? So you've managed to fix me then?"
"No, it's just we can't discharge you while you're downgraded, so we're upgrading you"
I'd never failed an RAFFT in my life, had to go to compulsory PT because people were failing them, got injured and then never had to do another one.
If the RAFFT was in any way fit for purpose then me being Unfit RAFFT should have barred me from deployment (glad it didn't though) otherwise what is the point of the test?
