What is the main objective of the CFT Monitor during the Maneuver Training Course (MTC)?

The primary objective of the CFT Monitor during the Maneuver Training Course (MTC) is to ensure that physical readiness and performance are evaluated effectively, with a focus on running a measured distance in the fastest time possible. This emphasis on speed and endurance is crucial to assess the physical capabilities of Marines in combat scenarios where quick maneuvering is essential.

While teamwork, safety, and technical skill assessment are important aspects of military training, the specific focus of the CFT Monitor during the MTC is centered on timing and ensuring that participants perform the running segment efficiently. This aligns with the overall goals of the Combat Fitness Test, which is designed to measure a Marine's physical readiness and ability to perform under pressure.
