Can Active Duty Sailors with two or more PFA failures in the most recent three-year period transfer overseas if they passed the most recent PFA?

Active Duty Sailors who have two or more Physical Fitness Assessment (PFA) failures within the most recent three-year period can still transfer overseas if they have successfully passed their most recent PFA. This policy is designed to promote fitness and accountability while also allowing sailors the opportunity to advance in their careers and fulfill duty station requirements. By passing the most recent PFA, sailors demonstrate their ability to meet the fitness standards expected within the Navy, which plays a crucial role in their deployment readiness and overall mission capability.

The possibility for these sailors to transfer is contingent upon passing the latest assessment, emphasizing the importance of recent performance over historical failures. This encourages continuous improvement and allows for a fresh start on the fitness front while still maintaining the overall standards of the Navy's fitness program.
