U.S. Army Soldiers check in for the physical training portion of the German Armed Forces Proficiency Badge (GAFPB) test at Camp Humphreys, South Korea, April 21, 2026. The GAFPB is a prestigious foreign military decoration that rigorously tests both physical and mental endurance. The test includes 11x 10-meter sprints, a max effort chin-up test, a 1,000-meter run, 100-meter swim where participants remove their uniforms while in the water to create a makeshift flotation device, 7-mile march with a 33-pound minimum ruck weight and a marksmanship test with a M17 pistol.
