E27: Musculoskeletal Injury and Physical Fitness Across US Army Occupational Specialties by Tyson Grier

"Musculoskeletal Injury and Physical Fitness Across US Army Occupational Specialties" by Tyson Grier, Regis Pearson, Timothy Benedict , Olivia Mahlmann and Michelle Canham-Chervak  examines the connection between musculoskeletal injury and physical fitness across various US Army military occupational specialties (MOS). The research details the methodology, which involved surveying soldiers and obtaining data on injuries and performance from the Army Combat Fitness Test (ACFT), revealing significant differences in injury incidence and physical fitness scores across MOS groups for both male and female soldiers. Ultimately, the investigation aimed to describe these associations and suggests that monitoring injury and fitness by MOS could help focus injury prevention strategies within the Army.
