What new injury, performance data tells us about Marine boot camp

A first-of-its kind study of Marine Corps boot camp shows different patterns in musculoskeletal injury rates and training progression for male and female troops. It also suggests possible training changes that might improve outcomes and lower drop rates.

Marine Corps leaders, however, say they’re still considering a way forward as they absorb study results.


The 739-page study, led by University of Pittsburgh’s Warrior Human Performance Research Center, was commissioned by the Marine Corps in a $2 million contract in 2020.

The Marine Corps was responding to a new congressional mandate to adopt a gender-integrated training model at both of its recruit depots, and the study largely focuses on interviews with recruits, new Marines and drill instructors.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

This is some kind of bogus study.  In today's modern, woke military there is no difference between male and female. :nono:
