The PFT is a collective measure of general fitness Marine Corps-wide, and consists of three events: [3] Dead-hang pull-ups or push-ups; Abdominal crunches or planks; Three-mile run (or 5000-meter row, if requirements are met) On October 1, 2008, the Marine Corps introduced the additional pass/fail CFT to the fitness requirements.
The command hosts the GPETE (General Purpose Electronic Test Equipment) Calibration and Maintenance School (GCAMS), Advanced Calibration Technician School (ACTS), and physical/dimensional calibration (Phase B&D) schools, and participates in the joint service Precision Physical and Dimensional Calibration School (PHYS-D).
The Combat Fitness Test (CFT) is an annual physical fitness test of the United States Marine Corps. The purpose of the CFT is to assess a Marine's physical capacity in a broad spectrum of combat related tasks. The CFT was specifically designed to evaluate strength, stamina, agility, and coordination as well as overall anaerobic capacity.

Most labs have three calibration sections divided into K1/K8, K5/K6 and K3/K4 that specialize in like test equipment. For example, the K3/K4 section would maintain Frequency counter, Oscilloscope, Synthesized Signal Generator and power sensor. While K1/K8 would maintain digital multimeter, high voltage probe and resistance standards. Lastly K5 ...
The formal definition of calibration by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM) is the following: "Operation that, under specified conditions, in a first step, establishes a relation between the quantity values with measurement uncertainties provided by measurement standards and corresponding indications with associated measurement uncertainties (of the calibrated instrument or ...
