Height
will be measured in stocking feet on a flat surface with
the chin parallel to the floor. The body should be straight
but not rigid, similar to the position of attention. The
measurement will be rounded to the nearest inch with the
following guidelines:
If
the height fraction is less than 1/2 inch, round down.
If
the height fraction is 1/2 inch or greater, round up.
Weight
should be measured and recorded to the nearest pound.
All
measurements will be taken in the APFT uniform.
Add
6 pounds per inch for males and 5 pounds per inch for
females measuring over 80 inches tall.
