Nyyoli, a friend of my son's struggled with his run time at his boot camp earlier this summer. I think your son will enter the FIT program and receive intensive training to get the swim test conquered and then will be able to do Battlestations with the next available group. It is still possible he will make the 10/21 PIR if he can get that swim test done. I would suggest you call the RTC public relations office as they are a wealth of information about what all of the details might be in this case. Best of luck to your son!
