Yes my friend I know that all of this has been created by the Venezuelan Goverment in order to give their military a reason to be sure that the US will not try to invade. Here in Colombia we all know the mission of the Comfort, and we are very well know its mission even in the two coast of our country, more when they arrive in the poorest regions of our geography giving medical asistance and support for them. But in the regional politics and deal with the dictaturship of Venezuela goverment, they use this US Navy medical support and campaign to give them a reason to move their troops, even more if the Comfort went to the Guajira Penynsula a very close region from their country.

The ACFT will have six events, including: strength deadlift; standing power throw; hand release pushups; sprint, drag, carry; leg tuck; and 2-mile run. The Army announced in July 2018 the ACFT will become the physical fitness test of record no later than October 2020. (Army National Guard photo by Spc. Lisa Crawford)
